The Times reviews “In The Blood”, a memoir by the Poet Laureate Andrew Motion.
Apparently, “above all, it’s his descriptions of the systematic brutality of his prep school that rend the heart. The corporal punishment is bad, but the farewells at the end of each holiday are worse.”
I think, I’ll check it out. I quite like his poetry, too.
-------Now you can buy a book of the best entries from "The Spanking Writers".

Be sure to report back, won’t you Haron! I do tend to find that my interest in most biographies wanes distinctly after the first few chapters when they grow up!
