Novel classification

[adamczyk]

what is the term applied to novels that describe the domestic and emotional lives of middle class people?

[andy hughes]

they are called 'Aga Sagas' - a term coined initially for Joanna Trollope's novels, inferring that people of a certain income levels had Aga cooking ranges in their kitchens, and a bewlidering variety of adventures in their bedrooms.
