General Note
First Little, Brown and Company edition 1944. Reissued in hardcover and paperback, December 2012.
Description
"After seven years of marriage, the beautiful Lady Brenda Last has grown bored with life at Hetton Abbey, the Gothic mansion that is the pride and joy of her husband, Tony. She drifts into an affair with the shallow socialite John Beaver and forsakes Tony for the Belgravia set. In a novel that combines tragedy, comedy, and savage irony, Evelyn Waugh indelibly captures the irresponsible mood of the 'crazy and sterile generation' between the wars." -- back cover.
