Hello, /lit/, I'm in dire need of your help.

I'm choosing a topic for my bc thesis and the supervisor recommended me Evelyn Waugh's works. Now, I have never read anything from him (or heard of him at all, actually).

Is he and his work a viable topic for bct? My own idea was to compare 1984 and Brave New World because it's easy, or maybe to trace the objectivism in the works of Ayn Rand as it could be quite easy as well, but she recommended I do Waugh instead.

shouldn't you be able to come up with something more in depth and original than that.

Actually this is bait. never mind

anon, i don't know whether to envy you, because you will have the experience of reading Brideshead Revisited for the first time, or pity you, because you appear to be a massive idiot

I'm not a /lit/fag by default. While I do enjoy reading, it is not my main hobby and so I have not come across some of the great ones.
I think that you should envy me, it's the only scenario in such cases.

Great trippledubs boi.
Yes, it is not deep and is shallow, but as I said, I wanted to do something easy.
Like, very easy.
Like "a week work with sessions of playing videogames in spare time" easy.

And the more original one was the objectivism idea.

Thanks.
My professor told me to read Decline and Fall and The Loved One.
I have started DaF (prologue and first chapter) and it indeed is rather funny.
Even if I decide to turn her proposition down (which I probably won't) I will at least get to know another great writer, which is fine.
