"working class literature" trend
in
English literature. This trend included, besides Chaplin himself, Alan Sillitoe, Raymond Williams, Stan
Barstow, David Storey and others. The essential subject of Chaplin's books is the life of the working class
youth. The writer deals mainly with the present and the future of the younger generation of the English
people. A teenager is always present in his characters.
