The Best of a Bad Job is a book written by Norman Duncan. It is a collection of short stories that revolve around the theme of work and the struggles that come with it. The stories are set in various locations and time periods, but all share a common thread of characters trying to make the best of their less-than-ideal situations. The book explores the lives of blue-collar workers, immigrants, and those who are marginalized in society. It delves into the challenges they face, such as poverty, discrimination, and the monotony of their jobs. Despite the difficulties, the characters find ways to persevere and make the most of their circumstances. The stories are written in a straightforward and engaging style that captures the essence of the characters and their struggles. The book is a poignant and thought-provoking read that sheds light on the realities of the working class. It is a celebration of the human spirit and the resilience of those who work hard to make a living.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
