Zuleika Dobson

Zuleika Dobson depicts the undergraduate life at Oxford with a sense of humor and satire. This story includes the famous line 'Death cancels all engagements' and presents a corrosive view of Edwardian Oxford. The Modern Library ranked Zuleika Dobson 59th on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. It was Beerbohm's only novel, but was nonetheless very successful.
