Me while reading: “Didn't expect such a scathing example of the casual bigotry of foreigners towards natives.”
Me after learning a little more about Waugh: “Oh that wasn't the satire part.”

A lot more silly fun than I expected, the fake out in the first chapter sets the tone for the rest of the story. It's definitely of its time but the satirical view of journalism is genuinely hilarious and evergreen.
