Recenzii
A
maverick

Waugh's unsparing bitterness is one of the things that makes his writing so good
To know as Waugh knows that there are no more great journeys and possibly no more great vows and still to trouble to write a novel at all exhibits precisely that fine hardness of mind most characteristic of him
