Items related to Class Act : How to Beat the British Class System
Synopsis
The first book from Britain's best-loved columnist and interviewer, Lynda Lee- Potter - a wonderful mix of autobiography and witty social analysis, as well as advice for anyone who wants to move through the class system. Does class still matter? Can you move across classes, and is it easier for men or women? What are the giveaways to your social background? Who makes up the new aristocracy? Class is still the most emotive word in Britain; using frank, funny and sometimes painful descriptions of her journey from a working-class mining background to life as part of an upper-middle-class family, Lynda Lee-Potter analyses how class pervades every aspect of our lives. She decodes everything from clothes to language to values; and laces her book with wicked anecdotes about household names, from Earl Spencer to Mick Jagger, the Countess of Wessex to Victoria Beckham.
