Story
Black Mischief, Waugh's third novel, helped to establish his reputation as a master satirist. Set on the fictional African island of Azania, the novel chronicles the efforts of Emperor Seth, assisted by the Englishman Basil Seal, to modernize his kingdom. Profound hilarity ensues from the issuance of homemade currency, the staging of a "Birth Control Gala", the rightful ruler's demise at his own rather long and tiring coronation ceremonies and a good deal more mischief.

Story
Lord Copper, newspaper magnate and proprietor of the Daily Beast, has always prided himself on his intuitive flair for spotting ace reporters. That is not to say he has not made the odd blunder, however, and may in a moment of weakness make another. Acting on a dinner party tip from Mrs. Algernon Stitch, Lord Copper feels convinced that he has hit on just the chap to cover a promising war in the African Republic of Ishmaelia. So begins Scoop.

Story
After seven years of marriage, the beautiful Lady Brenda Last has grown bored with life at Hetton Abbey, the Gothic mansion that is the pride and joy of her husband, Tony. She drifts into an affair with the shallow socialite John Beaver and forsakes Tony for the Belgravia set. In a novel that combines tragedy, comedy, and savage irony, Evelyn Waugh indelibly captures the irresponsible mood of the "crazy and sterile generation" between the wars.

Story
Eigentlich ist Evelyn Waugh bekannt für seine bissigen Satiren auf die aristokratischen Kreise seiner Zeit. Doch das ungewöhnliche Leben der Kaiserin Helena, Mutter Konstantins des Großen, die enormen Konflikte dieser Zeit, ihre Pilgerreise nach Palästina und die politischen Intrigen des imperialistischen Roms inspirierten ihn zu einem fesselnden Geschichtsroman. Waugh war erst Maler, dann Lehrer, Reporter und Kunsttischler, bis er in der Literatur seine Berufung fand. Seinen historischen wie geistreichen Abstecher in die Frühzeit des Christentums liest Walter Hilsbecher.

Story
Der britische Klassiker des feinen Humors. Der kauzige William Boot schreibt seine wöchentliche Kolumne über Natur und Landleben für eine Londoner Zeitung und ist mit seinem unaufgeregten Dasein vollauf zufrieden. Da wird er aufgrund einer Verwechslung 1938 als Kriegsberichterstatter in das afrikanische Krisengebiet Ishmaelia geschickt und dort weiß nicht, wie er sich in der Journalistenmeute zurecht finden soll. Denn alle sind auf der Jagd nach dem großen Scoop und spielen sich gegenseitig immer wieder aus.
