The Working Class and Twenty-First-Century British Fiction looks at
how the twenty-first-century British novel has explored
contemporary working-class life. Studying the works of David Peace,
Gordon Burn, Anthony Cartwright, Ross Raisin, Jenni Fagan, and
Sunjeev Sahota, the book shows how they have mapped the shift from
deindustrialisation through to stigmatization of individuals and
communities who have experienced profound levels of destabilization
and unemployment. O'Brien argues that these novels offer ways of
understanding fundamental aspects of contemporary capitalism for
the working class in modern Britain, including, class struggle,
inequality, trauma, social abjection, racism, and stigmatization,
exclusively looking at British working-class literature of the
twenty-first century.
