Steve Hussy
0/5 ( ratings)
"I had learnt that teachers are almost exclusively smug, phony left-wing, backstabbing, pseudo-intellectual, frequently stupid, hypocritical cunts. But I better explain all that.
"And why you need to run, fucking run, from them."
[Steve Hussy, 'Back']

After quitting teaching in his late twenties, Steve Hussy became an editor of Murder Slim Press. He then became penniless due to be being screwed over by one of his co-editors. Forced back into teaching, he follows a series of rules to ensure that he keeps his job... whilst constantly watching and writing about the strange and often repellent hundred-plus teachers that he works with.

For Hussy, his students are rarely the downside of the job... The true pitfall is the charmless, corporate face of modern education.

"Mr. Hussy is unsparing in offering his feelings -- mostly dislikes -- of teachers and, indeed, the 'system.' The only thing wrong with teaching, he maintains, are the teachers...
"I offer a hearty thanks for showing us why. And for doing it so well -- and entertainingly."
--- Seymour Shubin, from the introduction to 'Back'

"Steve Hussy is a writer that, while not relishing in the pure shock value alone, doesn't settle for a comfortable, easy read... he offers up some hard-hitting semi-autobiographical doses of reality that will make you decidedly uncomfortable."
--- Susan Tomaselli, 'Dogmatika'
