Good Soldier
'Good Soldier' Summary
The Good Soldier is a complex and haunting novel that explores the unraveling of two seemingly idyllic marriages in the years leading up to World War I. The story is told from the perspective of John Dowell, an unreliable narrator who gradually reveals his own role in the unfolding tragedy. As he recounts the events leading up to the disastrous outcome, the reader is drawn into a web of deception, betrayal, and secrets, questioning the nature of love, trust, and responsibility in a world on the brink of war. The novel's innovative use of flashbacks and its exploration of the psychological depths of its characters make it a timeless masterpiece of modernist literature.Book Details
