Evelyn Waugh, Brideshead Revisited (1945)
For the start of this unusual semester, Brideshead Revisited is our Catholic Novel pick. Waugh's classic novel invites us to savor the golden back-to-school days at pre-war Oxford, the unforgettable summers with the alluring Catholic Flyte family, and the subtle “twitches of the thread” of Grace in life's painful events.
We will host two Zoom discussions, on Wednesdays September 16 and October 7, 7:30-8:45 PM. On Sept. 16 we will discuss 'Book One', and on October 7 we will finish with 'Books Two and Three'. RSVP your interest to Dr. Jocelyn Moore (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) and we'll send you the Zoom link invitations. Note to UVA students: we'll buy and Amazon you the book!
