الملخص الإنجليزي

The present thesis studies the literature of Angry young Men in post-war Britain.

It chooses John Braine’s Room at the Top (1957) as a representative of Angry Young Men’s literature.

The literature expresses frustration against the broken promises of Welfare State in post-War II Britain.

The reasons of anger are political, social and, dissatisfaction with the working class conditions that have existed in Britain during the fifties.

The literature turns to the realistic novel in order to reproduce an authentic picture of the prevailing mood of the decade.

The thesis describes and analyzes the mood of anger in John Braine’s Room at the Top.

The novel shows that the Welfare State fails to turn Britain into a true democratic country in the fifties, since the rich men have continued to rule the country.

The deep-rooted rigid social class discrimination remains a force hindering the new working class citizens from achieving themselves.

The Welfare State ensures full employment for the working class population.

Still, there is an atmosphere of poverty and injustice.

Room at the Top is a realistic novel; it reproduces an authentic picture reflecting the disturbances that have prevailed in post-war II Britain.
