A Very Private School

In this poignant memoir, Charles Spencer recounts the trauma of being sent away from home at age eight to attend one of England's most exclusive boarding schools.

Exploring the long-lasting impact of his experiences, Spencer presents a candid reckoning with his past and a reclamation of his childhood. And now, in a new afterword, Spencer reflects on the aftermath of his memoir's publication, including the outpouring of support and solidarity from fellow abuse survivors.
