A Handful of Dust: Popular Penguins

Author(s): Evelyn Waugh

Fiction

Evelyn Waugh's A Handful of Dustis a satirical depiction of the 'sterile' generation between the wars. It tells the story of bored Lady Brenda Last, who abandons her husband's Gothic pile to conduct an affair with shallow socialite John Beaver of the Belgravia set. A Handful of Dustremains one of the finest tragedies and comedies of ill manners.
