Will we ever have a man who tells stories as meaningful and relatable as Evelyn Waugh?

I've only ever read Brideshead
It was good. Foppish and lush in style but not overly so. I want to be as decadent and idle as they. I also want all their weird Masochistic Catholic miniseries.
I though the framing story was little lame and made the novel see too much like a conversion piece.
What else has he done that's good though. You never hear about anything but Brideshead

Most of his other novels are better than Brideshead.
Read "A Handful of Dust", or "Decline and Fall" or "Vile Bodies"

His short stories are where the real talent is at.
Read Mr. Loveday's Little Outing

I might add that Brideshead is completely different from his other work.
It's pretty much criminal that its the only one that gets any attention.
He's primarily a satirist, but Brideshead isn't very humorous or satirical.
