In this poignant memoir, Charles Spencer—brother of Princess Diana—offers a clear-eyed, first-hand account of the culture of cruelty at the boarding school he attended in his youth. Drawing on the memories of many of his schoolboy contemporaries, as well as his own letters and diaries from the time, he reflects on the hopelessness and homesickness he felt at aged eight, presenting a candid reckoning with his past and a reclamation of his childhood.
