Raymond Williams came from Wales, and was brought up in a working-class family. This fact of place and class has to be considered as the start point for a thread which runs through his life and his work. In Raymond Williams: From Wales to the World this reality is considered as his life and work are traced out across borders, to people and places he could yet bring understanding and engagement. Throughout the book, Williams’ writing, whether theoretical, historical, critical or as fiction has been treated as a single whole, recognising that his ideas were interwoven as a literary and intellectual re-engagement with Wales over several decades.
