Brideshead Revisited (Penguin Modern Classics)
Evelyn Waugh's masterpeice, this is an extraordinary mediation on a lost world. The most nostalgic and reflective of Evelyn Waugh's novels, this book looks back to the golden age before the Second World War. It tells the story of Charles Ryder's infatuation with the Marchmains and the rapidly disappearing world of privilege they inhabit. Enchanted first by Sebastian Flyte at Oxford, then by his doomed Catholic family, in particular his remote sister, Julia, Charles comes finally to recognise his spiritual and social distance from them.
