Synopsis
In this sharply comic novel, Waugh fictionalizes his own life story in a richly fascinating manner. The Ordeal of Gilbert Pinfold recounts a period of mental confusion and breakdown in the life of Gilbert Pinfold, an established, middle-aged novelist. Brought to life by veteran actor Michael Cochrane, Pinfold is prone to paranoia and memory loss, which he attempts to cure with alcohol, and later a cruise to the tropics. However, when his over-active imagination makes peace of mind impossible, will tragedy ensue?
