Can anyone help me find the title/author/publisher of a short story collection used for 1986 GCSE English Lit exams. It was a paperback, yellow cover with black writing/border pattern. One of the short stories was Patrick O'Brian's Samphire. Would really like to read it again.
The Faber Book of Modern Short Stories, later retitled to Modern Short Stories and split into two volumes, was used as a GCE/GCSE text. Volume 1 contains 'Samphire': https://www.amazon.co.uk/Modern-Short-Stories-Jim-Hunter/dp/0571087442
Each examining board will have had its own syllabus (or, possibly, several different syllabuses), with different set texts for each. So it might help to know which examining boardyou're referring to.
