A review by tashahassan
Parade's End by Ford Madox Ford
2.0
This book boasts that it's the 'finest English novel about the Great War.'
Unfortunately, it's almost entirely full of affairs and people mooning over their loves.
It hardly talks about the war, and it switches POV to random people. It goes forward in time without telling you, which is so confusing.
I gave this an extra star for the scenes with Christopher and Valentine when they were together. They were the only characters who I could follow along in conversation with.
