Black Mischief

Black Mischief
Evelyn Waugh
LITERATURE •  2002 •  PAPER  • 312 PAGES

Waugh's devilish third novel, a send up of British colonial Africa and home-grown potentates on the fictional island of Anzania. Although you might guess Waugh takes Zanzibar as his model, Waugh's Africa is fictional -- and hilarious. He lampoons just about everybody on the island, an equatorial backwater, east of Somaliland and west of the Gulf of Aden. A facsimile reprint of the original 1932 edition.  (AFR20, $14.99)
