Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này
Ford Madox Ford's "The Good Soldier" is a masterful exploration of deceit, betrayal, and the complexities of human relationships set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Europe. Through the clever use of an unreliable narrator, John Dowell, the narrative unfolds in a nonlinear fashion, inviting readers to piece together the truth of the tangled lives of two couples, the Dowells and the Ashbournes. The novel's rich prose and subtle ironies encapsulate the disillusionment and moral ambiguity of the post-Victorian era, revealing the darker side of what society often perceives as good. Ford Madox Ford, born into an artistic family in 1873, was influenced by the avant-garde literary movement and the tumultuous events surrounding World War I. His experiences as a soldier and a literary figure inspired him to delve into the psychological intricacies of human motivations and relationships. Ford's own tumultuous personal life, marked by infidelity and heartbreak, undoubtedly informed the poignant themes of love and betrayal found in "The Good Soldier." I highly recommend "The Good Soldier" for readers seeking a profound, introspective narrative that challenges societal norms and invites critical reflection on the nature of truth and morality. Ford's intricate character studies and evocative style make this book an essential read for those interested in modernist literature and the intricacies of the human condition.
Giới thiệu tác giả
Ford Madox Ford, originally named Ford Hermann Hueffer, was a distinguished English novelist, poet, critic and editor whose fame largely arises from his novel 'The Good Soldier' (1915), a masterpiece of narrative structure and unreliable narration, often cited as one of the greatest novels of the 20th century. Ford was born on December 17, 1873, in Merton, Surrey, England, and passed away on June 26, 1939. With a grand literary heritage – his grandfather was the pre-Raphaelite painter Ford Madox Brown – Ford grew into an forefront figure of the modernist literary scene. He was famously known for his collaborations with Joseph Conrad and his founding of 'The English Review' and 'The Transatlantic Review', influential publications that featured the works of emerging modernist writers. Ford's literary style is marked by his preoccupation with the complexities of human psychology, impressionism, and his innovative use of literary techniques. His prodigious oeuvre includes over 80 books, ranging from fiction, poetry, and essays to criticism. Besides 'The Good Soldier', his other notable works include the 'Parade's End' tetralogy, which intricately chronicles the world during World War I and the end of the Edwardian era. Ford's contribution to literature extends beyond his own writing to his mentoring of younger writers and shaping the course of modern literature through his active, engrossing literary life.
