“Find out how much God has given you and from it take what you need; the remainder is needed by others.” – St. Augustine
Because I’ve built up a large collection of extra books and resources, each week I give away one or more, absolutely free, no strings attached.
Each giveaway lasts seven days with a new one beginning each Friday, so you can enter any time during the week. Check out a list of past giveaways items here.
Brideshead Revisited
by Evelyn Waugh
This week’s giveaway is a copy of Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh. Fr. Barron calls this book “the best Catholic novel of the twentieth century.” Here’s how Amazon describes it:
“One of Waugh’s most famous books, Brideshead Revisited tells the story of the difficult loves of insular Englishman Charles Ryder, and his peculiarly intense relationship with the wealthy but dysfunctional family that inhabited Brideshead. Taking place in the years after World War II, Brideshead Revisited shows us a part of upper-class English culture that has been disappearing steadily.”
In order to win this week’s giveaway, leave a comment below answering this question:
What do you think is the best novel of the twentieth century, Catholic or not?
The winning comments will be randomly selected on Friday morning using a random number generator, and the giveaway will be sent out, free-of-charge, shortly thereafter to the three winners.
In the future I’ll be giving away many more books and resources–sometimes multiple items per giveaway. So check back next Friday!
Update: The drawing is closed for the week of Friday, May 11. Congratulations to Charley for winning this week! Check your e-mail for instructions on receiving the book. If you don’t see an e-mail from me, check your spam box–apparently e-mails with “giveaway” in the subject line often end up there.
