Two young men meet at Oxford. Charles Ryder, son of a middle class businessman, is befriended by Sebastian Flyte, a member of the noble House of Marchmain, after Sebastian throws up in his college room through an open window. Sebastian then invites Charles to lunch after his teddy bear Aloysius 'refuses to talk to him' unless he is forgiven. Charles becomes involved with Sebastian's family, Catholic peers in Protestant England. The story is told in flashback over twenty years later, as Charles, now an officer in the British Army, is moved with his company to an English country house that he discovers to be Brideshead, Sebastian's family home where Charles remembers happier days.
