HUNT: The song talks a lot about hardship and overcoming it, and that's kind of what I think of when I think of my grandpa as well. MITCHELL: (Singing) To right the unrightable wrong. And he would stand up like it was - like the national anthem. And he would either like to start it with that or cap it with that.

And if Lowry was never at the centre of the revolutionary maelstrom, he was certainly swinging somewhat haphazardly around its fringes (Cunningham, 1988). The political climate which affected many of Lowry’s contemporaries, also affected Lowry to a greater or lesser degree. This movement into the margins took a number of forms, like ‘roughing it’ among the workers, becoming involved in radical left-wing politics, travelling to remote places, being concerned about frontiers, changing names, and rejecting the prevailing literary aesthetic in favour of writing ‘proletarian’ fiction. It was not uncommon for British writers in the 1930s to express a sense of dislocation from their roots and to experience, apparently, some form of identity crisis as a result.
