Two books came out in April which have an important focus on girls' and women's experiences. There is much more to be done on expanding the voices heard but I feel encouraged that this is happening.

I'm in print! Now that I have a hard copy in my hands, it feels true. I hope the book proves helpful and adds something meaningful to the growing literature on boarding school harm. With thanks to Nick Duffell for the opportunity to contribute a chapter on a subject close to my heart.

Final proofreading this weekend of my chapter for this book, published by Routlege in April. It's an odd and not entirely comfortable feeling, made easier by having the first chance to read the other chapters written by fellow practitioners. www.routledge.com/The-Un-Makin...

From the introduction by Olivia Laing:
"School. He called it Paradise Perverted: beatings instead of embraces, the miserable little boys in their poorly fitting suits torturing each other, starved of affection, estranged from their bodies"
Prep school, boarding school.
