Nice Work is a 1988 novel by British author David Lodge. It is the final volume of Lodge's "Campus Trilogy", after Changing Places (1975) and Small World: An Academic Romance (1984).[1]Nice Work won the Sunday Express Book of the Year award in 1988[2] and was also shortlisted for the Booker Prize.[3]
The larger socioeconomic background to the novel was the economic policies and education cuts during the Thatcher government.[4] Lodge was inspired, in part, by his experiences of shadowing a friend who supervised an engineering firm.[5]
The year following its publication, the book was adapted in a four-part TV series for the BBC.
