After many years of writing, Gordon moved to London, where he took a course in teaching English as a foreign language. Gordon began teaching abroad in his 50s. He first taught in Poland and then in 2003 he relocated to China. Gordon collapsed in the Shanghai Metro of a heart attack and died in hospital on February 7, 2009.
