Vile Bodies - Unabridged — Evelyn Waugh

Vile Bodies is author Evelyn Waugh's breakout novel, a social satire of the rich, spoiled aristocracy in London in the 1920's. Known as the Bright Young People, these were socialites with time on their hands, money to spend and few rules to constrict them. Both a wildly comic novel (characters include an M.P. named Walter Outrage and a society matron named Lady Throbbing) and an incisive satire of the idle rich, Vile Bodies was Waugh's first major success and established him as a leading voice in pre-war British literature.Vile Bodies is presented here in its original and unabridged format.
