1: Why were political parties mistrusted?

the best description of postwar writers might be progressive.

following the war, writers showed a tendency to work on artistic or social matters rather than political themes. while postwar literature may not have been the greatest period of english literature, the themes provided excellent critics a high number of novels. such examples include anthony burgess, anthony powell and frank kermode, all of which can be placed under the progressive view.

honestly i love the walking dead, mainly the quotes. “well, pardon me young man, excuse the [insert bad word here] out of my gosh darn french, but did you just threaten me? ” sksk (of course it's not the exact words)

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!
