After having unsuccessfully tried to read The Loved Ones, I wasn't sure how this Waugh would sit with me. But there's a reason this is considered his best work. His use of metaphor alone won me over. His characterization of university (see excerpt below) in the first half of the book resonated with me. His treatment of purposeless upperclass young Englishmen between the Wars was much more eloquent than Messud's treatment of purposeless upperclass young Americans post 9/11 in Emporer's Children. If you give this a try, don't linger with the prologue: get on with it, and you'll be rewarded. This one goes out to all of my college friends: Looking back, now, after twenty years, there is little I would have left undone or done otherwise.... I could tell [my cousin] that all the wickedness of that time was like the spirit they mix with the pure grape of the Douro, heady stuff full of dark ingredients; it at once enriched and retarded the whole process of adolescence as the spirit checks the fermentation of the wine, renders it undrinkable, so that it must lie in the dark, year in, year out, until it is brought up at last fit for the table. I could tell him, too, that to know and love one other human being is the root of all wisdom. But I felt no need for these sophistries.... I had my secret and sure defence, like a talisman worn in the bosom, felt for in the moment of danger, found and firmly grasped.
