Order of Evelyn Waugh Books
Evelyn Waugh (1903-1966) was an English author of literary fiction and non-ficton books. Evelyn was the son of a successful editor/publisher. In addition, his brother Alec also became a writer. After getting expelled from a boarding school due to his novel The Loom of Youth, he ended up at Lancing College – where the entire focus of English class was to produce prose writers. He also attended Hertford College, Oxford. When World War II broke out, he served in the Royal Marines and Royal Horse Guards. Following the war, he would once again focus on his writing, which became known for their sardonic wit and technical brilliance.
