Trip and Fall by Maria Thomas

London Short Story Prize winner Maria Thomas puts a black female academic at the centre of her original short story Trip and Fall. A middle aged English lecturer fears her job is going the same way as that of many of her non white colleagues. Fearing she's about to get the chop, she comes up with a plan to trip and fall before she's pushed.
