Looking for good fiction/nonfiction written during, or I suppose about, the interwar period (WWI/II). Largely for cultural research, but also for fun. Any recommendations? I'd be willing to branch into during-either-war as well.

W.G. Sebald. Thank me later.

Isherwood's Berlin Stories. Waugh's Scoop is great for the period when everyone thought WWII wouldn't happen; Brideshead Revisisted is a good span of the changing attitudes of the period too in Britain. Anais Nin's diaries if you want the skinny on the Lost Generation in Paris.
