Question

Write a short summary of the extract 17 of the novel ‘To Sir with Love ‘.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

novel is based on true events concerned with Braithwaite taking up a teaching post in a Greenslade school there. The novel is composed in 22 chapters with every possible detail which give a remarkable insight into the politics of race and a class in postwar London.

In 1967, the novel was made into a film, To Sir, with Love, starring Sidney Poitier and Lulu, and the film's title song became a number-1 hit that year. The setting for the film was changed from post-war London to the "swinging sixties", and, notwithstanding its success, Braithwaite had ambivalent feelings towards it, as he admitted in an interview with Burt Caesar conducted for a 2007 BBC Radio 4 programme entitled To Sir, with Love Revisited (produced by Mary Ward Lowery).
