Just finished Waugh's "A Handful of Dust," and still can't figure out why I'm on Tony's side.
@benschwartzy If you step back from Waugh's POV, she's completely sympathetic. Who wants to be married to that dull stick Tony?!?

@HeerJeet And in the jungle, Tony's held hostage by someone even duller than he is. His Sisyphean Hell, I guess. I wanted more John Beaver. -
@benschwartzy Beaver is a fantastically good character. Have you read St. Aubyn's Melrose cycle? It's like Waugh plus heroin chic.
