Charlie Colenutt’s intense and revealing interviews capture the raw voices of people talking honestly about work . . . Read this, as each one opens a hidden window on the way we live now.' - Polly Toynbee
For the best part of two years Charlie Colenutt travelled the country to talk to a hundred strangers, from all walks of life about their jobs: What did they do for a living? Why did they do it? Did they like it?
They met in coffee shops, chain pubs or front rooms. He met the church minister who, maddened by his email inbox, has come to feel more like an administrator than a spiritual leader. He found out the number of birds killed a day in a poultry factory, the order in which patients are woken up in care homes, and the reasons why you shouldn’t smile when you are shown your bonus in an investment bank.
Together, the voices in Is This Working? tell a story about the one thing that most British adults have in common – work.
