SUMMARY:

Who is Widmerpool? The question that is to dog Nicholas Jenkins crystallizes as he sees the gawky figure of his schoolmate huffing through the mists on a solitary cross-country run. So unexceptional, unsmart -- even unpopular -- Widmerpool continues to drop in and out of Jenkins life through school, university and London in the 1920's. A Question of Upbringing is the first volume of A Dance to the Music of Time -- recently a successful television series starring Simon Russell Beale. James Purefoy, Alan Bennett, Sir John Gielgud and Claire Skinner.
