The Evelyn Waugh Society is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to promote, for the public benefit, interest and research into the life and works of the English author Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966).

The Society has members around the world, including authors, eminent academics, students, and researchers, but the majority of our members are non-specialists who simply enjoy Waugh’s books and are interested in learning more about the man and his works.

Please consider joining the Society for your own interest, or simply to express your support for our mission. Membership fees and donations can be paid securely online by credit card with payments being handled by PayPal (a PayPal account is not required to do this, only a credit card).

We welcome the contributions of all members to our publications, conferences, events, and to the conversations about Waugh conducted over our email discussion list and website forums.
