The Good Soldier

Zusatztext Ford was the only Englishman who stood alongside the great 'moderns'. Informationen zum Autor Ford Madox Ford Klappentext The Good Soldier tells the stories of two outwardly happy couples who meet at a health spa in Germany just before the start of the First World War, and whose loveless, adultery-ridden relationships are strained and gradually disintegrate, with tragic consequences. Drawing inspiration from his personal life, Ford Madox Ford innovatively used non-chronological flashbacks as well as an unreliable narrator to reveal the scandalous affairs, lies and betrayals behind the façade of respectability, and craft a masterly work of fiction and a subtle investigation of the notions of truth and deception. Zusammenfassung Thoroughly edited and extensively annotated, this edition of The Good Soldier tells the stories of two outwardly happy couples who meet at a health spa in Germany just before the start of the First World War.
