Humans before WW2 were probably just concerned if they and their families can eat at the end of the day. my life, why I should be working until I’m old and what is the purpose of it all. When I zoom out and have a bird’s eye view of my situation, I find it kinda ridiculous that these are problems that modern humans are facing.

Therefore, I’m fascinated by really seeing how humans used to live back then. What sort of problems, desires and goals they had compared to ours today. How humans used to live back then compared to us. Is there any book like that?

*A Midwife’s Tale* by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich might be up your alley.
Bill Bryson, home. Doesn’t cover one specific period but there’s lots of social history in it!
The Doll by Bolesław Prus, despised by polish HS students but fits your requirements well (and is long)
