The story will be uncongenial alike to those who look back on that pagan world with unalloyed affection, and to those who see it as transitory, insignificant and, already, hopefully passed. Whom then can I hope to please? Perhaps those who have the leisure to read a book word by word for the interest of the writer’s use of language; perhaps those who look to the future with black forebodings and need more solid comfort than rosy memories. - Evelyn Waugh.","brand":"Country House Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56410763919739,"sku":"10913747","price":58.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2458\/8207\/files\/orig_529258_jpg.jpg?v=1788880595","url":"https:\/\/countryhouselibrary.co.uk\/products\/evelyn-waughs-brideshead-revisited-1st-edition-chapman-hall-1945","provider":"Country House Library ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
