Evelyn Waugh Biografía y Hechos

Arthur Evelyn St. John Waugh (West Hampstead, Londres; 28 de octubre de 1903-Combe Florey, Somerset; 10 de abril de 1966), más conocido como Evelyn Waugh (/ˈiːvlɨn ˈwɔː/), fue un novelista británico de la primera mitad del siglo XX. Nacido en uno de los barrios de cinturón londinense, en 1910 comenzó sus estudios en el colegio Heath Mount, y en 1917 pasó al “Lancing College” en Sussex. En 1928 contrajo matrimonio con Evelyn Gardener de la que se divorciaría dos años después, coincidiendo con su entrada en la confesión católica. En 1937 se casó con Laura Herbert, con la que tuvo tres hijos. Muchos de sus libros están inspirados en sus viajes: por el Mediterráneo, en 1929; África en 1930; Sudamérica en 1933; Abisinia en 1935. Participa en la Segunda Guerra Mundial y en 1944 es destinado a Yugoslavia, regresando a Londres al concluir el conflicto. En 1947 visita Estados Unidos y Jamaica; y en 1958 viaja de nuevo por África. Recordado por Retorno a Brideshead, muchas de las novelas de Waugh reflejan la alta sociedad y aristocracia británica, satirizada por la ausencia de valores, en especial, de la sociedad londinense. También usa el humor negro y satírico en obras como Un puñado de polvo o Decadencia y caída (Decline and Fall). Escribió relatos, biografías y el primer volumen de su inacabada autobiografía, Una educación incompleta.
