Title : Men at Arms - Evelyn Waugh - book
Summary :
Guy Crouchback's trilogy, inaugurated by this novel, dominates the entire oeuvre of the great English novelist. The satirist of A Handful of Ashes and The Vanished Cher is succeeded in this mature work by a humanist novelist who deals with his usual virtuosity and brilliance with the emergence of new values in a world - that of the Second World War - which is seeing the collapse of the traditional canons of morality and honor. Carrying a disillusioned message, this book constitutes a tour de force where, in the words of Olivier Todd, "his joy of laughter hides Manichean pessimism"
