The Good Soldier: A Tale of Passion by Ford Madox Ford

4.0

The ending is a masterstroke which had me considering 5 stars, but although the book is very engaging, the narrator's naivety was at times quite frustrating. For a story focused on the titular good soldier, I also don't really think that Edward was that well illustrated. Most of the retelling is focused on Leonora, and the narrator's strong identification with Edward at the end seems a bit out of left field.
