Description
Evelyn Waugh's first two novels do not suggest any moral decision in a world without order and value. He does not protect anyone or anything with faith, creed, or dogma. His attitude is also ambivalent. In this sense, the novels are not legitimate satire. Waugh turns the chaos of the real world into a farce of unrestrained imagination, eccentric image, and detached attitude. Waugh's comic mind doesn't care to protest or protect a distinctive standpoint. To Waugh, the real world is a source of the eccentric image that arouses laughter. Waugh does not see the world as well-organized but as whirling chaos. His skill is far superior to that of legitimate satirists. Their works will fade once their reference to current events is lost.
