Autorenporträt
Ford Madox Ford (17 December 1873 - 26 June 1939) was an English novelist, poet, critic and editor whose journals The English Review and The Transatlantic Review were instrumental in the development of early 20th-century English literature. Ford is now remembered for his novels The Good Soldier, the Parade's End tetralogy, and The Fifth Queen trilogy. The Good Soldier is frequently included among the great literature of the 20th century, including the Modern Library's 100 Best Novels, The Observer's "100 Greatest Novels of All Time", and The Guardian's "1000 novels everyone must read."After writing two propaganda books, Ford enlisted at 41 years of age into the Welch Regiment of the British Army and was sent to France. Ford's combat experiences and his previous propaganda activities inspired his tetralogy Parade's End, set in England and on the Western Front before, during, and after World War I.
