Evelyn Waugh
In Scoop, surreptitiously dubbed "a newspaper adventure", Waugh flays Fleet Street and the social pastimes of its war correspondants as he tells how William Boot became the star of British super-journalism and how, leaving part of his shirt in the claws of the lovely Katchen, he returned from Ishmaelia to London as the "Daily's Beast's" more accoladed overseas reporter.

The same pretty much goes for Waugh as the writer. What a fine craftsman of story and line!
The satire is superb. I found myself laughing a lot. I can’t imagine how funny it was to people of the time who read it.
I know something about the history of journalism, up from those times to ours. If this topic interests you, you’re bound to both enjoy and find value.
That the events were taking place in a distant land abroad where a coup or civil war was perhaps taking place with all the possibilities, it was especially set up for a fun story.
I loved it!
