Parade's End
Book (italiano):
<p>Ford Madox Ford's masterpiece, a tetralogy set in England during World War I, is widely considered one of the best novels of the twentieth century. <br><br> First published as four separate novels (<i>Some Do Not . . ., No More Parades, A Man Could Stand Up—, and The Last Post) </i>between 1924 and 1928, <i>Parade's End</i> explores the world of the English ruling class as it descends into the chaos of war. Christopher Tietjens is an officer from a wealthy family who finds himself torn between his unfaithful socialite wife, Sylvia, and his suffragette mistress, Valentine. A profound portrait of one man's internal struggles during a time of brutal world conflict, <i>Parade's End</i> bears out Graham Greene's prediction that “There is no novelist of this century more likely to live than Ford Madox Ford.”</p>
