| Abstract | ||
| This paper deals with works written by post war writers represented by the works of Alan Sillitoe, John Wain and John Brain. These writers emphasize in their novels on the condition of the working class, especially after the World War II. Their works cast light on the salient characteristics of the working-class fiction. However, Britain had to put up with many economic and social problems such as the problem of unemployment, the Irish cause, the obligations towards the countries that used to be part of the ―Empire‖ and the increasing rate of poverty. This paper depicts how the above mentioned writers have shifted the point of focus from the metropolitan to the wronged provincial working-class man who has remained displaced for a long time. | ||
