Right Mr kropotkin - here's a couple that fit your request and that i think are worth the time:
Stuart hall - Cultural Studies: a theoretical history. Ignore the wanky title, it's just a collection of a weeks lectures that he did in america in 83, essentially introducing a lot of of US based types to the whole discipline. Simple language used to develop and clarify complex concepts. Read this alongside Geoff Eley's A Crooked Line: From Cultural History to the History of Society.
For a bit more ultra-leftist try Everything Must Go!: The Abolition of Value by Bruno Astarian and Gilles Dauve.
Lapavitsas' Profiting without Production is really really really important. But the one i would urge you to make time for is Cyber-Proletariat: Global Labour in the Digital Vortex byNick Dyer-Witherford as it ties together pretty much all the above.
Rest of stuff i've been deep in is fascist stuff and i guess you've not got the time for that.
Do not read Paul Mason. repeat - do not read Paul Mason.

- so far the ideas are really good, so thanks....
This one wasn't the usual type of book I'd read, I don't usually do slice-of-life stuff, but once I realised that nothing much was going to happen I just enjoyed the beautifully lyrical prose. Very nicely written.

Bring back hanging
It's one of the worst written books i've ever read. But it's Lucy so...
like butchersapron says it's not a great read so if you're already familiar with her then I couldn't recommend it really. as I didn;t know hardly anything about her beforehand it had its uses I guess.
