Miles Jupp

**THIS IS A PAST EVENT**

‘The funniest man in Britain has written a wonderful novel. Rejoice!’ said Richard Osman when he turned the last page of History. The private school Clive Hapgood teaches at is consuming his life. Far from being the gentle country life he envisaged, it is stifling and his marriage is on the brink. A holiday is what is needed, but things don’t go to plan…

‘Well observed’, wrote the Mail on Sunday, ‘Jupp has fun skewering the absurdities of public-school life.’ While History is very funny it is also a sensitive and insightful novel.
