Johnny Teague, a Texas GOP congressional candidate, wrote fiction about Anne Frank finding Jesus.
The Republican nominee for Congress in Texas’ 7th District is a self-proclaimed history buff, but his take on Anne Frank is not one that most historians would endorse.
Published by Las Vegas-based Histria Books, the speculative book attempts to faithfully extend the writing style of Frank’s “original” diary entries into her experiences in the camps. It “picks up where her original journey left off,” according to the promotional summary. Teague claims to have interviewed Holocaust survivors and visited the Anne Frank House, multiple concentration camps and the major Holocaust museums in Washington, D.C., and Israel as part of his research.
By book’s end, Anne is firm in her belief that “every Jewish man or woman should ask” questions like “Where is the Messiah? … Did He come already, and we didn’t recognize Him?”
