Two decades after their seminal work, Who's Afraid of the Working Class, these authors reunite for a new take on class and the politics of marginalisation. Anthem registers the pulse of the nation in a country unable to reconcile its past and uncertain of its future. With no easy answers, it asks the urgent question of who we are now -- does Australia really sing with one voice?
