Description

A satirical, tragicomic story about a man on the edge from actor and comedian Miles Jupp.

For readers of Jonathan Coe, Mark Watson, Michael Frayn and David Nicholls. Clive Hapgood is feeling stuck. The private school he teaches at is consuming his life, no thanks to wretched headteacher Julian Crouch.

Has he got it in him to turn things around, whatever the cost?

After all, it's his own time he's wasting...
