"Put Out More Flags" is Waugh's superb send-up of "smart" England, the bohemian crowd, as World War II approaches. Making a return appearance, Basil Seal this time insinuates himself into an odd but profitable role in the country's mobilization.

Evelyn Waugh was born in Hampstead in 1903 and educated at Hertford College, Oxford. In 1928 he published his first novel, Decline and Fall, which was soon followed by Vile Bodies, Black Mischief (1932), A Handful of Dust (1934) and Scoop (1938). During these years he also travelled extensively and converted to Catholicism. In 1939 Waugh was commissioned in the Royal Marines and later transferred to the Royal Horse Guards, experiences which informed his Sword of Honour trilogy (1952-61). His most famous novel, Brideshead Revisited (1945), was written while on leave from the army. Waugh died in 1966.

Condition: Como nuevo. : En 'Put Out More Flags', Evelyn Waugh nos ofrece una sátira mordaz de la sociedad inglesa en vísperas de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. A través de personajes ingeniosos y situaciones cómicas, Waugh critica las actitudes y comportamientos de la élite británica mientras el conflicto se avecina. Con un estilo elegante y una aguda observación social, esta novela es una reflexión sobre la frivolidad y la decadencia en tiempos de crisis.
