I started reading Waugh with Labels which I enjoyed so much I purchased A Handful of Dust immediately. I decided to save Brideshead as I know its his most acclaimed work and can't face finishing that just yet.

Just finished Evelyn Waughs Sword of Honour. Excellent trilogy. I'm now moving onto The Alexandria Quartet by Lawrence Durrell which I hope will be of similar style.
I really enjoyed the Waugh books, can anyone suggest similar authors/books?
