Common People: An Anthology of Working Class Writers by Kit de Waal

4.0

A really thought provoking collection of essays from working class writers about a wide range of working class experiences. As someone who's from a working class background, although I'm not sure I can call myself working class anymore, lots of the essays resonated - and made me realise how rarely you see genuine working class voices in either fiction or non-fiction. Some of the essays were of variable quality (as is normal with anthologies) but overall a really good read.
