Work, said Oscar Wilde, is the curse of the drinking class. This is the perfect example of the prejudice the upper classes have about the working classes. Hoggart's detailed and tender portrait of the life and culture of working people painted a very different picture – of a culture defined by work and love. This classic can today help us get out of the bubbles we inhabit. As can each of the other books recommended: Alan Sillitoe’s ‘The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner’; Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s ‘Infidel: My Life’; and Aparna Vaidik’s ‘My Son’s Inheritance’.
