The theme of Waiting in Osborne's Look Back in Anger


In the 1950s in England, life had settled down from the trauma of World War II and had returned to the "status quo". The class structure that had dominated the country since the 16th century and the Victorian social standards that had - but had not - been abandoned, were firmly entrenched.
