Waugh's first novel dismantles British respectability with surgical precision. His hero stumbles from disgrace to disgrace while society reveals itself as corrupt at every level. The humor is dry as bone, the social observation sharp as a blade. Waugh writes like he's too well-bred to be cruel, which makes the cruelty more effective. Perfect for readers who appreciate wit with bite.
