Now we have very different diaries of living with the shock created to our collective, bodies and psychic states by the creation of a 'crisis' by management, depletion through restructure 1 and a hostile environment.
The new print of Academic Diary… is a very beautiful thing even better than the first printing of the book. Poignant arriving the week that the Goldsmiths redundancy notices will be issued. The book is like a love letter to higher education before the break up.
