Description
A dissertation exploring aspects of the British working class novel between 1914 and 1939. A key aspect of the argument presented is that, contrary to conventional critical wisdom, there is nothing natural or inevitable about the working class novel's relationship with the realist form. The dissertation presents a clear case for the reassessment of these texts as sophisticated literary works, rather than as mere social documents.
