...his most carefully written and deeply felt novel..... The brightly devastating satirist of England's twenties and thirties moves from one world to another and a larger one: from the lunacy of a burlesqued Mayfair, very glib and funny and masking the serious point in farce, to a world in which people credibly think and feel' (NY Times Book Review).
Subtitled 'The Sacred and Profane Memories of Captain Charles Ryder', Waugh's defining novel details the spiritual lives behind the facades of an aristocratic family and their middle-class friend, the protagonist.
First UK trade edition; 8vo; unmarked internally; publisher's pink cloth, gilt lettering to spine, spine slightly cocked, spine ends slightly bumped, with the original unclipped dustjacket, extremities soiled, a few minor chips and closed tears, most heavily affecting head and foot of backstrip, else very good.
