About this book
Reviews
'Haytock provides excellent close readings of her primary texts, demonstrating that middlebrow women writers were grappling with the Depression as much as their working-class sisters. The Middle Class in the Great Depression is lively and well structured, with chapters devoted to a wide array of authors and corresponding themes, including the negotiation of 'normalcy,' class, family life, violence, and work.' - Lisa Botshon, Professor of English, University of Maine at Augusta, USA
