''A beautifully told story of courage, determination and, above all, magnificent defiance'' Alan Johnson ''Bracing and inspirational'' Nigella Lawson ''A wonderful writer... life-affirming'' Jon Snow ''There are lots of reasons to read this book, which has the fineness of detail, sharpness of humour and grace of a novel by Penelope LivelyBut it''s this business of changing one''s mind - the thing most of us least like to do - that I admired the most'' Observer ''I am immersed in a new world that feels a long way from my old one. Though I''ve not been re-invented, what has happened is just as radical and a lot more interesting: I am being re-educated.''

But one day, Lucy began to realise that the life she had built for herself no longer suited her. Was it too late to start again? The answer was no - so she proceeded to tear down both marriage and career, and went back to schoolRetraining as a teacher, Lucy discovers there is a world of new possibilities awaiting her - and learns that you can teach an old dog new tricks (providing they are willing to un-learn a few old ones along the way). A witty and moving story of one woman''s pursuit of a new life, Re-educated is a celebration of education''s power to transform our lives at any age, and an essential companion for anyone facing the joy - and pain - of starting again.
