another title for a proposed serialization in an american magazine (which didn't come into being in the end) is "a flat in london". while this title might not be as poetic as the original one, but it did point out the major element in this novel, one of the turning point for this story is brenda taking up a flat in london away form her big old estate, the hetton abbey, as well as a young man named john beaver. evelyn waugh told this story of a broken marriage while satirizing the time and society he lived in. author himself offered two endings to the story, one being a sad and reasonable one and another too-optimistic one. i personally prefer the first one for it fits the whole story and brenda doesn't deserve to be back with poor tony again. an interesting point i discovered during the reading: the title is from t.s eliot's the waste land, and t.s eliot used to gather and write together with aldous huxley. and the setting of this novel constantly remind of huxley's novel "crome yellow". all great writers are somehow connected, it seems.

简奥斯丁+现代启示录，适合拍成影视剧

语言洗练对话尤其轻车熟路，笔调好英式，能将悲剧沉重的东西用一种无感性、事不关己的调调表达出来，将主人公的呆傻、人性的卑鄙、idle rich的无聊生活以及终极的悲剧包藏在一部“轻松”的讽刺剧中。有一两处让我发笑的地方，但是读起来有股浓重的虚无主义味道，不喜欢。也许，虚无主义和狂热的宗教信仰真的只是一线之遥。Evelyn Waugh对人性的看法还真是苦涩。

Gothic有神马不好！Tony偏执守着大房子有神马错！（果然不能随便到乡下不然真的要被警察乡匪联手关起来变成疯婆子或者给人读狄更斯到死- -）

因为我没有读过这本书，不过正巧T.S.Eliot是我最喜欢的诗人之一。他的书不必读翻译的也不必买了。因为网上到处都可以找到。这一把尘土简直是世界上最美妙的尘土： "And I will show you something different from either Your shadow at morning striding behind you Or your ...

飞快地看完了《一把尘土》，而且是在饿了两天头晕眼花的状况下。伊夫林.沃说他理想的读者是那些对作者的语言感兴趣、有闲情逸志逐字逐句阅读的人。我不是合格的读者。我只是想快速地了解一下风格，决定是否可以再买其他。 冷静，斟字斟句，字里行间暗含刻薄文雅的嘲讽。故事发...  

2011年，企鹅出版社一次性推出了24册精装本的伊夫林沃作品集，所属系列为最具盖棺论定性的“Penguin Classics”藏书家大系（就我所知，在企鹅社纷繁复杂的欧美文学经典重版体系中，多年来也仅有纳博科夫得此殊荣，与之同列）：统一的天青色仿十九世纪框线装帧设计，慷慨的选纸...
