There are not too many Fashion Industry companies seemingly interested in using Fashion illustrators these days. When one looks through a current magazine, it is all about the photo. And what that photo captures, which goes way beyond the clothes. I have seen Nordstom’s adverts in Vogue magazines where Ruben Toledo, the husband of Fashion Designer Isabel Toledo is featured in multi-page spreads. I have also seen only his talent being used as backdrops with models featured in the foreground.

An Interview With Evelyn Waugh

By HARVEY BREIT
March 3, 1949

o matter how you look at him, Mr. Evelyn Waugh is a deceptive man: what meets the eye is at variance with what meets the ear. A remark he makes suggests cynicism, or perhaps a satiric humor, but Mr. Waugh's face--bland, pink and cherubic--suggests only innocence. In fact, expression on Mr. Waugh's face is at a minimum--a flicker of amusement, of naughtiness, an infinitesimal hint of wonder. In feature it's a little like a boyish Winston Churchill's. And Mr. Waugh's bowler, cigar and dapper, plump figure extend the resemblance.

1945 Brideshead Revisited / Evelyn Waugh's Finest Novel

 

Evelyn Waugh's Finest Novel

By JOHN K. HUTCHENS

My theme, says the narrator in Evelyn Waugh's latest, his most carefully written and deeply felt novel, "is memory, that winged host." And, with that, the brightly devastating satirist of England's Twenties and Thirties moves from one world to another and a larger one: from the lunacy of a burlesqued Mayfair, very glib and funny and masking the serious point in farce, to a world in which people credibly think and feel. Whether "Brideshead Revisited" is technically as expert, of its kind, as "Decline and Fall, "Vile Bodies" or "A Handful of Dust" may be debatable. The important point just now that it is bigger and richer, and that--to those of Mr. Waugh's admirers who might recently have suspected he was exhausting a rather limited field--it will almost certainly be his most interesting book in ten years: more interesting in story and in style, and not least in what it implies about its author and his growth as an analyst and an artist.

I recently read an article in which an author listed Evelyn Waugh’s ‘Scoop’ amongst his favourite books. He said that he considered it superior to his masterpiece ‘Brideshead Revisited’.

Mary Beard on judging the Booker prize

I found being a Booker judge hugely rewarding. All the works on our shortlist will change how you see the world

Mary Beard

Tuesday 22 September 2026

As a Booker judge, I think I have worked harder than I have ever done before. Reading 163 novels in six months, making careful assessments, being ready to argue for your judgment, going back to check you haven’t got it wrong … in some ways it took more energy than actually writing a book. But it was also hugely rewarding and fun. I shall never forget the discussions in our regular judging meetings, and the pleasure of discovering how we had sometimes reached almost exactly the same view of a book, and sometimes dramatically diverged. There were no big newsworthy squabbles, but a lot of discussion, a lot of listening and re-reading.

Mary Cassatt: l'indépendante

6 Oct 2026 — 31 Jan 2027 at the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, France

10 SEPTEMBER 202

In 2026, in order to mark the hundredth anniversary of the artist’s death, the Musée d’Orsay is organizing a major exhibition devoted to Mary Cassatt (1844-1926). In France, this will be a long-awaited event: its national museums have never devoted a major exhibition to Mary Cassatt, an active member and pillar of the impressionist group. Her centenary provides an opportunity to examine the central place occupied by this prominent artist who, through talent and determination, succeed in forging a unique identity in late 19th- and early 20th-century art history, on both sides of the Atlantic.

The Committee Weighs In

I tell my mother
I’ve won the Nobel Prize.

Again? she says. Which
discipline this time?

It’s a little game
we play: I pretend

I’m somebody, she
pretends she isn’t dead.

How to Win the Nobel Prize

By Dan Piepenbring

 October 9, 2014

Reading the news about Patrick Modiano today, I was struck by the insipidness of the Nobel Foundation’s citation: “for the art of memory with which he has evoked the most ungraspable human destinies and uncovered the life-world of the occupation.” It bears all the hallmarks of an overblown blurb, one of those in which a bold, gimlet-eyed novelist is elucidating the now, or a limpid, singular poet is saying the unsayable. (Very few poets are saying the sayable these days, if our blurbs are to be believed.)
