by D. J. Taylor (Author)
D.J. Taylor's Bright Young People offers a scintillating portrait of 1920s London and the birth of the cult of celebrity.
Before the media circus of Britney, Paris, and our modern obsession with celebrity, there were the Bright Young People, a voraciously pleasure-seeking band of bohemian party-givers and blue-blooded socialites who romped through the gossip columns of 1920s London. Evelyn Waugh immortalized their slang, their pranks, and their tragedies in his novels, and over the next half century, many--from Cecil Beaton to Nancy Mitford and John Betjeman--would become household names.
Author Biography
D. J. Taylor is a literary critic and the author of the acclaimed biographies--Thackeray and Orwell: The Life, which won the Whitbread biography prize in 2003--and several novels, including Kept: A Victorian Mystery. He lives in Norwich, England.
