Lockdown diaries of the working class / by The Working Class Collective.

"The Lockdown Diaries of the Working Class is a celebration of working class culture in the UK. This book is the first project of The Working Class Collective, a community of working class creatives and people who want to celebrate working class culture around the world. The original idea for the book comes from Dr Lisa Mckenzie, a working class academic who initially sought the diaries as part of a research project. Lisa was frustrated the with academic institutions and the lack of interest in the diaries and what they captured and so the collective was created to do something with them - which turned into this incredible book! The diaries, submitted by working class people across the UK capture their experiences of the first lockdown during Covid-19 in 2020. The diaries are brought to life by six incredible working class illustrators, each of them very different in style and tone but perfectly capturing the experiences of the diary writers. This book was made possible by 700+ backers through a Kickstarter campaign."-- Provider by publisher.
