التداعي والسقوط

Waugh's wit and critique feel so pointed — I wonder what events or personal views influenced the tone and themes of the novel.

The satirical jabs are so sharp, but I’m curious whether the humor feels timeless or a product of its era to others reading now.

The characters seem to embody different facets of society — I’d love to know what led to the choices in how they’re presented and their roles.
