The idea
Evelyn Waugh wrote the satires Decline and Fall and A Handful of Dust, converted to Catholicism in nineteen thirty, and wrote Brideshead Revisited, of nineteen forty-five, in which Charles Ryder recalls his friendship with the Flytes, a wealthy Catholic family.
In practice
Satire, then Catholic memory.
