Brideshead revisited : the sacred and profane memories of Captain Charles Ryder

Waugh, Evelyn, 1903-19662000
Books
Written at the end of the World War II, this novel mourns the passing of the aristocratic world which Waugh knew in his youth and recalls the sensuous pleasures denied him by the austerities of war. In so doing, it provides a study of the conflict between the demands of religion and of the flesh. .
