S. Kadison has been a teacher for over twenty years and draws on this experience in several stories. Born in Germany, Kadison came to England as an infant and was raised in a small village in Kent. Moving to Bristol as a science student and then later holding jobs in the north-east, the Midlands, Yorkshire and Manchester, Kadison’s writing is informed by the cultural uniformity discovered within this variety. This is the author’s first collection of stories.
