About Alastair Hugh Graham
Alastair Hugh Graham was an honorary attaché in Athens and Cairo, an Oxford friend of Evelyn Waugh, and, according to Waugh's letters, one of his "romances". He is the inspiration for Sebastian Flyte in Brideshead Revisited. While Hugh Lygon and Stephen Tennant were considered to have inspired the character, Sebastian’s mannerisms and letters echo those of young Graham. Waugh wrote privately that the character had been based on Graham and his son, Auberon Waugh, confirmed it after his father’s death.
