'Well-observed . . . [Jupp] has fun skewering the absurdities of public-school life' - Mail on Sunday

Clive Hapgood is feeling stuck.

The private school he teaches at is consuming his life, no thanks to wretched headteacher Julian Crouch. The gentle country life Clive envisaged has stifled him and left his marriage on the brink. What he needs is a holiday - something to remind him and Helen what life used to be like. But when things don't go to plan, and an incident at school begins to weigh heavy on his head, Clive's life starts to unravel in front of him.

Has he got it in him to turn things around, whatever the cost? Wonderfully funny and moving, History is a bittersweet tale of one man's attempts to keep it together in the face of his own attempts to mess everything up . . .
