Synopsis

Charles Ryder, a lonely student at Oxford, is captivated by the outrageous and exquisitely beautiful Sebastian Flyte.

Invited to Brideshead, Sebastian's magnificent family home, Charles welcomes the attentions of its eccentric, aristocratic inhabitants. But he also discovers a world where duty and desire, faith and earthly happiness are in conflict; a world which threatens to destroy his beloved Sebastian.

Probably Waugh's best-loved work, Brideshead Revisited was made into a phenomenally successful television drama series, starring Jeremy Irons and Anthony Andrews.
