Fragmenting Modernism: Ford Madox Ford, the Novel and the Great WarFragmenting Modernism: Ford Madox Ford, the Novel and the Great War

This book is about Ford and his place in modernism. Setting Ford in his cultural and historical context, the opening chapter debates the concept of fragmentation in modernism; later chapters develop this debate in relation to the personal narrative and war writing. Ford's literary technique is analysed comparatively, and this text will be useful for anyone studying the literature of the early twentieth century, war writing, impressionism, or modernism in general terms.

Nicholas Daly's Modernism, Romance and the Fin De Siecle: Popular Fiction and British Culture, 1880-1914 reads at times like a scholarly response to F. Scott's Fitzgerald's assertion that "the test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function."
