Pelna namietnosci historia milosnego trójkata, ze splendorem i dekadencja angielskiej arystokracji u progu drugiej wojny swiatowej. Powrót do Brideshead nie jest powiescia wojenna, lecz nostalgicznym - i troche ironicznym - wspomnieniem znakomitego pisarza o szalonym swiecie lat dwudziestych, mlodosci na uniwersytecie w Cambridge, o przyjazniach, milosciach, a zwlaszcza o dworze w Brideshead, który z perspektywy okopów wydaje sie bohaterowi utracona Arkadia...

Tells the story of the difficult loves of insular Englishman Charles Ryder, and his peculiarly intense relationship with the wealthy but dysfunctional family that inhabited Brideshead. While at Oxford, Charles Ryder meets boyish, flamboyant Sebastian Flyte, who introduces Charles to a charmed and glamorous way of life that continues until Sebastian's health deteriorates.

Work Description

The most nostalgic and reflective of Evelyn Waugh's novels, Brideshead Revisited looks back to the golden age before the Second World War. It tells the story of Charles Ryder's infatuation with the Marchmains and the rapidly-disappearing world of privilege they inhabit. Enchanted first by Sebastian at Oxford, then by his doomed Catholic family, in particular his remote sister, Julia, Charles comes finally to recognize only his spiritual and social distance from them.
