Adam wants to marry Nina. Nina wants to marry Adam. Unfortunately, he doesn't have any money. Their pursuit of happiness amidst the anarchic social swirl of 1920s London is at the center of Vile Bodies, but it is the unsettled conditions underlying the swirl itself that are the real target of Waugh's satire. So, once again, this time in prose, Prufrock wanders unaware into the wasteland.
