Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh
5.0

Absolutely loved this book. One of the truest novels I've ever read about what it is to be young and what it is to grow old. I think it's the perfect novel about youth. So beautiful it made me want to cry. Elegant and profoundly sad writing with a strong line of sharp humor threaded through. The second half with Julia was a bit slow but the over all experience of this book was completely worth it. Another classic that deserves to be a classic.
