Meine Lieben, das Buch, das ich euch vorlese, wurde vor etwa sechzehn Jahren unter dem Titel Doppel-Ich veröffentlicht. Es war eine Auftragsarbeit für das Gütersloher Verlagshaus. Der Verlag war durch meine Talkshow "Guildo und seine Gäste" auf mein zerklüftetes Treiben im pädagogischen Kontext aufmerksam geworden. Bestellt wurde ein Buch über meinen Ansatz zum Thema Inklusion. Ich habe das Ganze dann in einen autobiografischen Roman gepackt und bin dafür in Bereiche meiner Vergangenheit vorgedrungen, die mich zum Teil vor mir selbst erschaudern ließen.

As a historian Asa Briggs was a pioneer, who ventured into previously unexplored areas of study: labour history, urban history, local history, northern history, the history of cities, the history of the book, the history of communications, and so on. He seemed interested in everything; no detail was too trivial, no subject tedious; they were all “fascinating”. His main field of study was Victorian history, a field which he helped to establish and cultivate. This is his life story, told for the first time.

They made school a safe, supportive, and engaging place where King could be a kid despite the challenges at home.

For decades, she led an English classroom with caring and conviction, but it’s not until she’s retired, and then fighting cancer, that she begins to share her story: long ago marching with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., building a corporate career, and overcoming heartbreak before “accidentally” becoming a teacher and forever shaping the lives of countless young adults—including bestselling author Kristine Gasbarre.
