‘A Short About The British Education System…’ is a fictionalised account of something extraordinary that I witnessed/experienced in a South Wales classroom when I was 11-years old.

The story was published as a limited edition pamphlet by Rough Trade Books and does not feature in either of my two books.

Copies of the pamphlet are still available to buy directly from Rough Trade Books. They may even be signed. (I signed a load of them the last time I was at the RTB office, but I can’t remember if I signed them all!)

A slightly earlier version of the story appeared in Best European Fiction 2018.
