Hi Cliff! Wonderful review, as always. I read 'The Good Soldier' in college, but don't remember the intricate details of the plot. It's definitely due for a reread. I highly, highly recommend 'Quartet' and 'After Leaving Mr. Mackenzie' by Jean Rhys. Rhys is widely known for her novel 'Wide Sargasso Sea,' but 'Quartet' and 'After Leaving...' explore (through a fictional lens) her tumultuous affair with Ford Madox Ford. He was her literary mentor and romantic partner, but their relationship ended quite poorly. Her side of the story is compelling and fascinating. Happy reading!
