A Staircase in Surrey Synopsis: The Gaudy by J.I.M. Stewart (book 1 of the quintet) starts out at an Oxford annual dinner that the Fellows hold for past members. Duncan Patullo is now able to attend, and so he can catch up with both friends and enemies from his undergrad years. As the night goes on, Duncan is caught up in many of their problems, such as Lord Marchpayne, a Cabinet Minister, and Gavin Mogridge, who wrote his memoirs of travelling to the jungles of South America. Patullo, however, has his own problems. He’ll get even more the next day, which cause him to take stock of his past as well as his future.
