The most popular French work books

Books about work are set where most of us spend our days. Offices, factories, kitchens, hospitals and gig jobs provide the drama: ambition, boredom, difficult colleagues and the search for meaning in what we do. Novels and memoirs here are often funny and always recognisable. Only books in French are listed.
