This innovative study investigates the emergence and impact of the
lower middle class on British print culture through the figure of
the office clerk. Using a variety of source materials - including
novels, magazines, newspapers, letters, and life writing - the
author traces the literary profile of the white collar worker
during a time of unprecedented change in class and culture. This
interdisciplinary work offers important insights into a previously
- and undeservedly - neglected area of social and book history, and
explores key works by George Gissing, Trollope, Thackeray, Dickens
and Forster.
