AMAC Book Club’s June selection is Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh. Join us as we explore this literary classic filled with history, faith, and aristocratic decline.
6/1/25 – : The AMAC Book Club is delighted to announce that Evelyn Waugh's celebrated novel Brideshead Revisited has been selected as its Book of the Month for June. This choice continues the club's tradition of exploring significant works of literature that provide both rich storytelling and profound thematic depth.
Brideshead Revisited, first published in 1945, is recognized as one of Waugh's most influential works, offering a detailed examination of themes such as friendship, faith, and the decline of the British aristocracy. Set between the two world wars, the novel tells the story of Charles Ryder's close relationship with the aristocratic Flyte family, whom he meets during his time at Oxford University.

The novel’s exploration of complex relationships and moral dilemmas makes it a perfect choice for spirited discussion and deep reflection among book club members.
