In a special edition of Open Book, Mariella Frostrup and guests discuss the rich heritage and bright future of working class writing and consider how it can be defined today.

Mariella is joined in the studio by Professor Simon K枚vesi of Oxford Brookes University, writer and academic Lisa Blower, journalist and writer Anita Sethi and editor at Trapeze Katie Brown, who is also co-chair of Hachette's All Together Network.

Plus novelist James Clarke argues that kitchen sink realism is a thriving literary genre, despite its mid-Century origins.
