Nothing can stand in our way.'When Oxford-educated Emperor Seth succeeds to the throne of the African state of Azania, he has a tough job on his hands. His subjects are ill-informed and unruly, and corruption, double-dealing and bloodshed are rife. However, with the aid if Minister of Modernization Basil Seal, Seth plans to introduce his people to the civilized ways of the west - but will it be as simple as that?\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAbout the Author\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nEvelyn Waugh was born in Hampstead in 1903 and educated at Hertford College, Oxford. In 1928 he published his first novel,\u003cbr\u003e\nDecline and Fall, which was soon followed by\u003cbr\u003e\nVile Bodies (1930),\u003cbr\u003e\nBlack Mischief (1932),\u003cbr\u003e\nA Handful of Dust (1934) and\u003cbr\u003e\nScoop (1938). During these years he also travelled extensively and converted to Catholicism. In 1939 Waugh was commissioned in the Royal Marines and later transferred to the Royal Horse Guards, experiences which informed his\u003cbr\u003e\nSword of Honour trilogy (1952-61). His most famous novel,\u003cbr\u003e\nBrideshead Revisited (1945), was written while on leave from the army. Waugh died in 1966.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780141183985\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.6 x 5.1 x 0.8 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49077421441328,"sku":"Prakash_9780141183985","price":424.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/penguin-book-default-title-black-mischief-38781362798896.jpg?v=1753011094","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/black-mischief","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
