As a result, I see the book through the filter of this amazing, lush, decadent, gorgeous series (well the scenes set in 20's that is).<br />The decay, disappointment & disillusionment are meant to be Waugh's doom and gloom beliefs about the future of our society.<br />I love this book, but a big part of that love is due to the series (well worth the watch if you can still find it anywhere).Bronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5383119466961870537.post-67883230973668809302014-01-17T21:32:59.981-05:002014-01-17T21:32:59.981-05:00Hi Satia, It's great to hear from you again!
