About the book

Decline and Fall is a satirical novel written by Evelyn Waugh. The story is a darkly comedic exploration of the absurdities and hypocrisies of British society in the interwar period. The novel follows the misadventures of its protagonist, Paul Pennyfeather, a naive and well-meaning young man who is unjustly expelled from Oxford University after a drunken prank. With his future prospects in ruins, Paul is forced to take up a series of menial and often comically absurd jobs. He eventually finds himself working as a teacher at an obscure boarding school in Wales called Llanabba Castle. As the story unfolds, Paul Pennyfeather's life takes increasingly surreal and unexpected turns, leading to a climactic and darkly comic conclusion.
