Welcome
Welcome to our Working Class Studies book discussion blog. You are to post at least three individual responses to your book, and two group responses.
The first group post should address:
1. What drew you to this book?
2. How is it "working class?"and
3. Your sense of what the book is about and your sense of how "good" a book it is (the quality of the writing; its literary merit).
Be sure to post a list of the group members. Please do this each time you post a group response.
Each subsequent post should, at a minimum:
1. Discuss whether or not (and the extent to which) the book is meeting your expectations. (The first individual and group post should discuss what your expectations are and why you chose this book.)
2. Reflect on how the theme (or a theme) of the book is "work," or "working class," and
3. Analyze the quality of the book. (Is it any good? Why or why not?)
