A West Country blogger (Hasenschneck, which, I think, means rabbit-snail in German) has posted several photos with narrative of a recent visit to Waugh’s house and grave at the village of Combe Florey. The entry is entitled “By Special Request” and is dated 24 October 2015. The following note explains the significance of the title:
By Special Request is the title of the final episode in A Flat in London, the serialised version of Evelyn Waugh’s novel A Handful of Dust, which appeared in American Harper’s Bazaar in October 1934.
Must be a Waugh fan.
