		Ford Madox Ford said that his “literary friendship” with Conrad had been “for its lack of jealousy a very beautiful thing.” This is not to say the relationship with Conrad was easy, it was not.

		Similarly, Ford was a fairly well-known author, having already published the popular children's stories The Brown Owl (1891) and The Feather (1892), a novel called The Shifting of the Fire (1892), a collections of poems (1893), and a biography of his grandfather, Ford Madox Brown (1896).
		Ford was indeed a liar, though a largely benign one, and Conrad was a heartless, fickle user of people (though he seems not to have noticed, for the most part, just how heartless he was).
		Ford, too, was concerned abut the complex epistemological problems of novel-writing, and in particular with the separation, on the one hand, between author and narrator, and, on the other hand, the narrator's immersion in the story for which he (or she) is responsible.

		Set at the beginning of the twentieth century, Ford Madox Ford's novel "The Good Soldier" is the story of two married couples Edward and Leonora Ashburnham and John and Florence Dowell.
		Ford created an unreliable narrator and also wrote about the complex inner workings of relationships, an area of darkness that will always be immune from full enlightenment.
		Ford employs innovations: the plot is disjointed, non-chronological, and infused with reflective commentary from the narrator.

	Review: Saunders, Ford Madox Ford, A Dual Life (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Graham Greene, long an admirer of Ford, was one of the prime movers behind the publication in 1962 by Bodley Head of the major novels, which he also edited.
		He has also cogently noted how Ford's elegiac lyricism, rather Tory in feel and quite undeniably characteristic, is constantly menaced by horror and despair in the face of issues whose tragic, comic and absurd sides he is fully aware of.
		At all events, Saunders' biography must be acknowledged as the most authoritative account of Ford's life, and at one and the same time one of the most stimulating studies for an understanding of his work.

		Modernism and the Individual Talent “is written in memory of Ford but, appositely, is also dedicated to the late W. Sebald: the former described as a ‘European writer’, the latter as a ‘writer of Europe’.
		It is a subtle distinction which echoes Ford’s own observations that despite the ‘eternal principles for all the arts’ the application of those principles are ‘eternally changing, or eternally revolving.’ For sure, it is the application of those principles which gives life to literature and gives challenge to the critic whose work is never done.
		These essays, most of which began life as contributions to symposia on Ford, and aimed at correcting the neglected influences of the German side to his character, are not just for devotees of Ford but capture the exciting times of the Modernist movement in which he lived and moved and significantly helped mould.”

		Ford Madox Ford wrote over seventy-five books, many of which are out of print or, in any case, unread.
		Ford chose to have Dowell tell us this tale of passion and madness after he has been disillusioned, a nervy choice indeed, but one that pays off spectacularly in the end.
		It is only after we have broken free of the style that we can marvel at the crazily melodramatic events that Ford risks, all the while using the technique of the fuzzy first person narrator as his ace in the hole bulwark.

		Ford Madox Ford, although a literary figure often undervalued, must stand alongside the lofty literary statures of giants such as James Joyce and Henry James.
		Inconsistently and often unreliably, Ford's narrative tells a tale that, although not particularly epic, brings in the reader a sense of sadness and fatalism.
		Written in a time of repressive sexual attitudes, Ford manages to convey a story that, although self-censored, reflects the hidden lives of the real social world; sex, betrayal and adultery.
