Description

On 24 July, Professor Patrick Query spoke to the Pageturners book club at the Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, Public Library on the subject of Brideshead Revisited, the famous novel of World War II by British author Evelyn Waugh.  Dr. Query, an internationally recognized expert on Evelyn Waugh, had earlier provided members of the club with a guide to the novel, and the session included a presentation by Dr. Query followed by a long question-and-answer period covering such topics as the interwar period in Great Britain, the British system of education, and the treatment of religion, love, and class in Brideshead Revisited.  Dr. Query has been asked to speak to the club again next summer.
