It tells the story of Charles Ryder's infatuation with the Marchmains and the rapidly-disappearing world of privilege they inhabit. Enchanted first by Sebastian at Oxford, then by his doomed Catholic family, in particular his remote sister, Julia, Charles comes finally to recognise only his spiritual and social distance from them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sancho's Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53538388377939,"sku":null,"price":115.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/5403\/5283\/files\/Brideshead-Revisited-EVELYN-WAUGH-Harry-Brockway-FOLIO-SOCIETY-2018-New-Edition_1.webp?v=1777119416","url":"https:\/\/sanchosrarebooks.co.uk\/products\/brideshead-revisited-evelyn-waugh-illustrated-harry-brockway-folio-society-2018-2","provider":"Sancho's Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
