Anthony Masters was a writer in exceptional gifts and prodigious energy. He began his eventful and versatile career like a teenager, when he was expelled from school for organizing a revolt against the school uniform. In order to earn a living, he fulfilled his childhood ambition and took on writing. In 1964, at the age of 23, he published A Pocketful of Rye, a collection of short stories where freshness of style earned him a distinction of being runner – up in the John Llewellyn Rhys Memorial Prize, an established and prestigious British – based literacy award. He made the award two years later with his novel The Seahorse, after which he continued to display his considerable talent by writing both fiction or non – fiction. The inspiration for many of his novels came from his experience helping the social excluded: he ran soup kitchens for drug addicts and campaigned for the civic rights of gypsies and another ethnic minorities. His non – fiction output was typically eclectic, ranged from biographies to social histories, but it was a writer of children fiction that Masters outshone his contemporaries. His work contains a sensitivity which remains unequalled by some other writer of the genre.
