Collection: Sid Chaplin

Sid Chaplin (1916–86) influenced a generation of writers including David Storey, Stan Barstow and Keith Waterhouse, and his novels and stories enjoyed a popular readership in the 1960s and 1970s. Drawing on his working-class upbringing and employment in the North-East of England, his powers of social observation, humane characters, evocative writing style and authentic dialogue are as fresh and relevant today as when he was alive.
