On the other hand, American literary critic Edmund Wilson pronounced Waugh "the only first-rate comic genius that has appeared in English since Bernard Shaw." Time magazine, in a 1966 obituary, summarised his oeuvre by claiming that Waugh had "developed a wickedly hilarious yet fundamentally religious assault on a century that, in his opinion, had ripped up the nourishing taproot of tradition and let wither all the dear things of the world."
- Evelyn was born at about the same time as the third coming of Jesus and was raised by his uncle and aunt after his real parents died in a car crash, leaving a lightning-shaped scar across his head. He was forced to cook and clean for his two ugly step-sisters, and his only dream was to one day get out of this abusive life. His uncle would regularly sodomise him with volumes of communist literature, and it seems that it was this which turned him to the Dark Side. One day a giant of a man called Hagrid came a-knocking. He told the little Evelyn that he was, in fact, a wizard, and that he had came to take him to Hogwarts where he could learn to become a Jedi. It was at Hogwarts that Evelyn met the abusive crack head Harry Potter, who taught him how to pleasure himself with turnips. However, young Evelyn soon became seduced by the dark side of the Force, and after hearing a speech given by a member of the Hogwarts Debating Society on the natural healing powers of communism, Evelyn fled to the USSR, where he could practise his new-found powers. He took the name Darth Balls, and in time became one of the USSR's leading scientists. However, it seems he eventually suffered a mental breakdown, and gave up his powers. He remained loyal to the USSR, however, and published a number of novels which were in fact thinly veiled pieces of communist propaganda. In his later life he turned his skills to film-making, which is what he is best known for. He died on 21 July, 199999, due to a surfeit of peaches.
