<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>When John Dowell and his wife befriend Edward and Leonora Ashburnham, they appear to be the perfect couple. He is a distinguished soldier and she is beautiful and intelligent. However, what lies beneath the surface of their marriage is far more sinister and their influence leads John into a tragic drama that threatens to destroy everything he cares about. <p/>Ford Madox Ford wrote <i>The Good Soldier</i>, the book on which his reputation most surely rests, in deliberate emulation of the nineteenth-century French novels he so admired. In this way he was able to explore the theme of sexual betrayal and its poisonous after-effects with a psychological intimacy as yet unknown in the English novel.</p><p>(Book Jacket Status: Not Jacketed)</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Ford Madox Ford</b> (1873-1939) began his career writing fairy tales before collaborating with Joseph Conrad on several novels.
