"To Each His Own" is the first novel in Ford Madox Ford's celebrated "Parade's End" tetralogy, about a strained marriage, passion, and honor on the eve of World War I. Despite his intellectual, brilliant appearance, successful career, and substantial inheritance, Christopher Tietjens is a deeply unhappy man. Tormented by his wife's open infidelity and his own torrid affair, Tietjens attempts to forget the past by volunteering to fight for his country.
The first of four volumes, "To Each His Own," sets in motion a complex web of attachments, passions, and grievances unfolding in an era of profound change. The tetralogy's central conflict is the clash of the older, more "lyrical" Victorian era with the new, rational, industrial, and harsh world.
"No More Parades," first published in 1926, is the second book in the "Parade's End" tetralogy by English writer Ford Madox Ford. The Great War changes everything. In this story spanning more than a decade, war upends the world of privileged English aristocrat, officer, and gentleman Christopher Tietjens. It forces him to question everything he holds dear: social order, morality, marriage, and loyalty. It undermines the very foundations of English society.
This is a powerful story of love, betrayal, and disillusionment in a time of terror and turmoil, written by one of Britain's finest novelists. "No More Parades" and the entire "Parade's End" tetralogy are an unforgettable exploration of the tensions of a society confronting madness and violence.
