An Education (17 page)
Thanks
I should like to thank Tony Lacey and all at Penguin for having faith in me; likewise, my agent Gill Coleridge. Thanks too to Ian Jack for publishing my original story in
Granta
, and to Nick Hornby, Amanda Posey and Finola Dwyer for making it into such a brilliant film. I am grateful to all my
Observer
colleagues, but especially John Mulholland, Jane Ferguson and Nicola Jeal, for turning a blind eye to my slacking while I finished this book. Friends who helped with encouragement are too many to list but they know who they are. And, as always, love and thanks to my daughters, Rosie and Theo, for their constant support.
