Alice Thomas Ellis, whose real name was Anna Haycraft, was half-Finnish, half-Welsh and spent her childhood in Liverpool and as an evacuee in North Wales. She lived in Camden in North London with her family. Her friend Beryl Bainbridge wrote of her: “Whenever I had to go somewhere in an aeroplane I’d ring Anna up and ask if she thought God would keep it in the air. She always said He would.”
