Order of Evelyn Waugh Books

Evelyn Waugh (1903-1966) was an English writer renowned for both his literary fiction and non-fiction works. He was the son of a prominent editor and publisher, and his brother Alec also pursued a writing career. After being expelled from a boarding school for his novel The Loom of Youth, he found himself at Lancing College, where the English curriculum was dedicated to cultivating prose writers. He later attended Hertford College, Oxford. When World War II erupted, he served in the Royal Marines and the Royal Horse Guards. After the war, he returned to his writing, which became celebrated for its sardonic wit and technical mastery. Waugh made his literary debut in 1928 with the novel Decline and Fall.
