He is best-known for his fiction, especially The Good Soldier , long considered a modernist masterpiece; and Parade’s End , which was adapted by Tom Stoppard for the acclaimed 2012 television series, starring Benedict Cumberbatch. This volume marks the centenary of The Good Soldier , with eighteen essays by established experts and new scholars. It includes groundbreaking work on the novel’s narrative technique, chronology, and genre; plus pioneering work considering the treatment of bodies and minds; eugenics; poison; and surveillance. Innovative comparative studies discuss Ford’s novel in relation to Henry James, Violet Hunt, H. G. Wells, Franz Kafka, Jean Rhys, David Jones, and Lawrence Durrell.International Ford Madox Ford studies ;Volume 14.English essays20th centuryElectronic books.English essays823.912Saunders MaxHaslam SaraAbdalla BenetiaMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461158203321Ford Madox Ford's the good soldier2043012UNINA
