Gay from China at the Chalet School is the book in which Miss Bubb comes as a temporary headmistress, and it tells the story of her tyrannical rule, of Gay Lambert’s first term, and of how Joey deals with the situation in her own inimitable way.
When it was published by Armada (as Gay Lambert at the Chalet School), whole chunks of text were left out. T
his is also the book when Sybil causes Josette serious injury and Katherine Bruce (author of Peace Comes to the Chalet School) has written a short story, Sybil’s Darkest Hour, which tells us the story of this episode.
And finally, we have included a photograph of the ‘real’ door through which Gay left the School that night ….
Reviews
- I only had the Armada paperback of Gay, and reading the GGBP edition was like reading a completely different story. I couldn't believe how much information had been cut out.
