A review by mtustingore
Decline and Fall by Evelyn Waugh

4.0

A rather amusing look at how the British class system largely protects their own, no matter how much they should not be protected. I don't think the book would be very enjoyable to those who do not appreciate its sense of humour and would also be confusing for those without a knowledge of the these sorts of British institutions, but for the right person it's a great read. Some aspects are a bit dated given how at times the book is a product of its time (1928), but perhaps what's more frustrating is that many of these societal problems in the British class system continue to persist today.
