Vile BodiesWaugh, Evelyn

Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"Evelyn Waugh's early novels...have an essentially satirical motivation. They turn an impartial and comprehensive ironic vision upon the pretensions and follies of every class, profession, race, and even religion. They gave offense to some readers in their own day, and undoubtedly they still do..."
David Lodge, New York Review of Books, 07/15/1999
Review:"Much of...Waugh's iridescent first novel is imbued with [a] breezy, heartless spirit....And most of the delicious elements that were his hallmarks are present from the beginning....In DECLINE AND FALL, Waugh treated all devotional matters as the raw material of farce. But the concept of a capricious cosmos was already jostling in his mind with the notion of original sin."
Christopher Hitchens, Atlantic Monthly, May 2003
