Shit Jobs (Patuka Press: Various Authors)

Shit Jobs is a pamphlet containing short prose pieces by 18 Gibraltarian writers. They write about the misery, risk and sheer futility of certain jobs with a mix of unashamed directness, dark humour, cutting satire and a dose of social criticism. The pamphlet also represents Gibraltar’s linguistically hybrid nature with pieces in English, Spanish and Llanito.
