Description

Florence Aubenas embarked on an extraordinary journey to understand the impact of recession on everyday life. She packed her bags and set out to find work in another city, without connections or special skills, and immersed herself among job seekers at employment offices. As she navigated the challenges of unemployment, Aubenas gained a unique insight into the lives of those struggling during economic downturns. Her experiences eventually led her to take on a role as a night cleaner on a ferry crossing the English Channel. This book is a candid account of her journey, offering a personal and relatable perspective on what it means to be unemployed in today's economy. By sharing her story, Aubenas sheds light on the often-overlooked realities of recession, making this book an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to understand the human side of economic hardship.
