Book excerpt: Good Old Anna is an examination of a German villager in a small English town who first works as a nurse for young Rose, before becoming her maid. The novel considers the psychological effects of the first World War between Britain and Germany. Excerpt: "AND now," asked Miss Forsyth thoughtfully, "and now, my dear Mary, what, may I ask, are you going to do about your good old Anna?" "Do about Anna?" repeated the other. "I don't quite understand what you mean." In her heart, Mrs. Otway thought she understood very well what her old friend, Miss Forsyth, meant by the question. For it was Wednesday, the 5th of August, 1914. England had just declared war on Germany, and Anna was Mrs. Otway's faithful, highly valued German servant."
