patrick_d_evans 's review for:
Brideshead Revisited
by Evelyn Waugh
sigh...I...I just...
On an aesthetic level, its a beautiful novel. But Waugh really tries to sell the reader on Catholicism and aristocracy by showing that yes, everyone is miserable in both, but its all just so ~beautiful~ and you get to ~suffer~ which is apparently the only recourse that Waugh could imagine for the human condition.
