About the book

"The controversial British writer Ford Madox Ford is increasingly recognized as a major presence in early twentieth-century literature. He is best-known for his fiction, especially 'The Good Soldie', 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."--Back cover.
