Dishing the Dirt by Nick Duerden
The jaw-dropping real-life stories of Londons house cleaners, from immigrants who clean suburban family homes to butlers who manage the homes of the super-wealthy.
'Succeeds brilliantly in dismantling casual assumptions about the drudgery of cleaning – and about the kinds of people who do it for a living
- HELEN MCCARTHY, THE GUARDIAN
It’s a remarkable, myth-busting piece of social commentary, which really does dish the dirt on some of the untold stories, lifestyles, hopes, dreams and aspirations of house cleaners.
