From a View to a Death is the third novel by the English writer Anthony Powell. It combines comedy of manners with Powell’s usual interest in the subtleties of British 20th-century society in a bitterly funny narrative. Here Powell begins to write in the mode that he would perfect in A Dance to the Music of Time.Published in 1933 the novel is set largely in and around Passenger Court the country seat of the Passenger family.
