The Loved One - Evelyn Waugh

KORTE INHOUD

Southern California, as readers of Jessica Mitford's The American Way of Death will know, is unique in the splendid elaboration of its graveyards and funeral customs.

Set against a background of embalming-rooms and crematoria and the unforgettable Whispering Glades Memorial Park, The Loved One is as ludicrous as Decline and Fall, as incisively shocking as Vile Bodies and - underneath the laughs - as moving as death itself. A triumph of barbed flippancy.
