The Quorum
“They made no conscious effort to ignore the Deal for ten and a half months of the year but were busy with increasingly challenging, complicated lives.
Mark completed a BA in English and American Studies in 1981, having spent 1979-80 at the University of California in Santa Cruz. In his first year, he started selling pieces to The New Statesman, the New Musical Express and the Guardian. Editors did not realise he was still a student. He directed a student production of Antigone, which was a hot ticket at the 1978 Edinburgh Festival. At UCSC (Uncle Charlie’s Summer Camp) he wrote a draft of The Shape of the Now, a cross-disciplinary study extrapolating from culture and fashion to politics and philosophy. By the time he got his first, he had sold the book to Real Press, where Pippa was now a junior editorial assistant. He learned his way around TV and radio. He drew praise from A.N. and Colin Wilson, and would not have been surprised to be commended by Harold, Jackie and Woodrow. Article...s about him were no longer obliged to mention in the first paragraph that he was twenty-one.MoreLess
