A central figure, artistically and influentially, in the modern movement...a masterpiece of Impressionism, as well as of intricate plotting, technical manipulation and powerful irony
Guardian
A sense of ambiguity and fluidity, of there being no absolutes, only relativities, is dazzlingly displayed in The Good Soldier
Economist
An astounding novel
The Times
I would rather have written Ford Madox Ford's novel than all the books I have written. After reading it a dozen times, I still find a mystery at its heart... an exercise in elegance and a triumph of structure. I am always imitating it and always failing. The prose makes my heart ache with envy
Ruth Rendell, Guardian
My favourite novel... You expect a boring novel about Edwardian marriages. This could not be more misleading. It’s a gothic melodrama with a high body count
Ned Beauman, Guardian
Sometimes the best presents come in small packages...masterful
Daily Telegraph
The narrative casts a mesmeric spell... intelligent, beautifully written, heartfelt and true, and a great book
