A QUESTION OF CLASS : English Literary Life 1918 - 1945

Question of Class traces the intellectual, social and political journey of the Brideshead Revisited generation of the 1920's and the more politically engaged generation of the 1930's, from Eton, Oxford and Cambridge to Mayfair, Chelsea, Bloomsbury and abroad, and explores the influence their common origins and education had on their lives and work.

The film features interviews with Christopher Isherwood, Stephen Spender, Anthony Powell, Alan Pryce-Jones, Harold Acton, Peter Quennell, James Lees-Milne, John Lehmann, A.L. Rowse, Diana Mosley, David Herbert and Nigel Nicolson.
