description: “A literary biography of the same caliber as Richad Ellmann’s James Joyce , James Lees-Milne’s Harold Nicolson , Hilary Spurling’s Ivy Compton-Burnett and Rupert Hart-Davis’ Hugh Walpole .” ―Michael Dirda, Washington Post Book World "The Evelyn Waugh who emerges from this fascinating and masterful account is a far different, and a far more complex, figure than the one most readers know. . . . Not only supersedes all earlier accounts of the writer but also is a model of the biographer’s art." ―Michael Gorra, New York Newsday
