Stig Sjödin (1917 1993) var en av de mest betydande svenska poeterna under andra halvan av 1900-talet. Här står arbetarförfattaren Sjödin i centrum, sådan han framträdde i sina diktsamlingar och i de dikter han publicerade i fackförbundspressen eller läste på möten. Boken lyfter särskilt Sjödins skildringar av arbete, klass och arbetarrörelse i folkhemmet. Dessutom undersöks hur poeterna Jenny Wrangborg och Johan Jönson förhåller sig till sin föregångare. Magnus Nilsson (f. 1975) är professor i litteraturvetenskap vid Malmö universitet. "En pionjärinsats" (Aftonbladet)"Omsorgsfullt och grundligt framarbetad" (Dala-Demokraten)

Writing Class offers a compelling analysis of how contemporary Swedish literature represents precarious labour. Drawing on a wide range of literary forms—from novels and poetry to graphic narratives—it explores how authors respond to the rise of nonstandard employment and its social consequences. Engaging with key debates in literary and cultural theory, the book situates these texts within broader historical, political, and aesthetic frameworks. Special attention is given to how contemporary literature both engages with and reconfigures the tradition of Swedish working-class literature. A vital contribution to studies of class, labour, and literature, Writing Class rethinks the relationship between literature and social change, revealing its potential not only to deepen our understanding of labour-market precarity but also to challenge it.
