Very Good jacket. New York. 1986. Morrow. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0688065686. 176 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Fred Marcellino. keywords: Europe Scotland Literature World Literature. DESCRIPTION-Five percent of British children are sent away from home, usually before they reach their teens, to complete their education in expensive private boarding schools. It is a particularly, and peculiarly, British institution; it has been established for centuries and shows no signs at all of any decline in popularity. These schools are hothouse societies-abnormal, monosexual, enclosed worlds governed by their own bizarre codes and manners. What is it really like to live in such places-paradoxically called ‘public schools'? To stay there for five, six, seven-even more years? What effects does it have on the internees, adolescents consigned to an internal exile for their formative years? Does it leave social or sexual scars? Is it a curse or a blessing on a privileged elite? William Boyd-survivor of a nine-year stint in a public school-examined the phenomenon in two original films he wrote for television: Good and Bad at Games (broadcast in Britain in 1985) and Dutch Girls (broadcast in 1985). School Ties contains the full scripts of both films plus a long essay by the author-a reflection on the institution of the single-sex boarding school and its repercussions on the individual, and a candid memoir of his own school days in the British gulag archipelago. inventory #3879.
