Evelyn Waugh







Evelyn Waugh was a british novelist that lived from 1903-1966. He served in the British Armed Forces during World War II. He attended Hertford College in Oxford . He was married two times. At one point he suffered from Bromide poisoning from pills he was prescribed and thought he was going insane. But once he was off the pills he went back to normal. He converted to Roman Catholicism after the failure of his first marriage.

I am interested in reading his World War II series Sword of Honour.  I have always been interested in WWII and I enjoyed A Handful of Dust, so I think that Sword of Honour will be an interesting read.
