haversam 's review for:
The Good Soldier: A Tale of Passion
by Ford Madox Ford
That was really the saddest story. And the way that Ford wrote it was what made the whole thing so exceptionally sad. Even after the book is has had its end, I still feel that I am sitting next to John Dowell. I can hear the sea and feel the fire. The back and forth through time works as a long monologue without the need for dialogue.
Some may call it an unreliable narrator, but I liked how Ford gave general brushstrokes of what happened and then filled in details later. It puts you on a lull for when Ford is ready to hit you with another twist.
For an author that was not well known to me, for in fact I never heard of him before this year, this is definitely a classic book.
