Evelyn Waugh
a literary life
by David Wykes
"Waugh's life and his literary life exist in dynamic relationship. Virtually all of his fiction was autobiographical, yet he maintained that his novels were objects, unrelated to the life of their author."--BOOK JACKET.
"This study traces the shifting relationship of ascertainable fact and imaginative fiction throughout Waugh's career, focusing on the endless negotiation he conducted between life and art, and on why, from being author of the anarchic, hilarious Decline and Fall, he transformed himself into the author of the romantic, eschatological Brideshead Revisited."--BOOK JACKET.
