Detailed item info

Synopsis
A professional house cleaner reveals the secrets of her clients' lives (anonymously), and offers the real dirt behind her profession.
Size
Height:	8.3 in.
Width:	5.8 in.
Thickness:	0.8 in.
Weight:	6.4 oz.

Publisher's Note
In this fresh, funny, strikingly original memoir, Rafkin talks about her invisible status as a domestic worker in a world of illicit sex and secret lives, of closet alcoholics and binge eaters, unlikely spiritualists, and revealing celebrities.
Industry reviews
"'Other People's Dirt' is mostly a good-humored glimpse inside the housecleaning trade, complete with experienced judgments about cleaning machines and products--one she would particularly like hasn't been invented : a Self-Cleaning Refrigerator--and glimpses inside the houses where she puts them to work." Washington Post - Jonathan Yardley (04/22/1998) "...a delight from cover to cover. Complex in tone yet forthright in the pleasures it offers, it unassumingly stakes a claim as an instant classic of the memoir genre." San Francisco Chronicle Book Review - Michael Upchurch (07/12/1998)
