Description

Ford Madox Ford's masterpiece explores love and identity during the First World War. A novel of destruction and regeneration, Parade's End follows Christopher Tietjens as his world is shattered by the war. The psychological damage inflicted by battle, the collapse of England's secure Edwardian values, and the beginning of a new age are all traced in this elegy for both the war dead and the passing of a way of life. Tracing the devastating impact of the First World War on an aristocratic family, Ford Madox Ford's novel is a powerful portrayal of the human cost of conflict. The relationships between characters are complex and multifaceted, reflecting the changing social landscape of post-war Britain. Published in 2019, this Penguin Classics edition features an introduction by Julian Barnes, providing context and insight into Ford Madox Ford's enduring masterpiece.
