Caracteristici
There has been a significant rise in interest in working-class fiction over the last decade but most of the key critical works on the topic date from the late 1980s to mid-1990s - this collection rethinks issues relating to working class fiction and the critical work relating to it
Examines a broad range of writers, from Woolf to Orwell
Argues for a heterogeneous model of the working class that functions as a strategic rather than a descriptive term and is always mobilised within particular historical contexts
