Brideshead Revisited
by Evelyn Waugh
reflective
sad
slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Strong character development:
Complicated

Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:

First half: wild, gay, drunk -- intriguing.
Second half: repressed, heterosexual, Catholic -- dull.
Not entirely sure what Waugh was aiming for with all the homoeroticism in this one. Truly the "First, make a gay little man. Then, give him a problem" school of plotting.
But even when bored I can't help but admire the striving thrust of Waugh's sentences.
