Review:

The second book in what they call the tetralogy of Parade’s End.

Here we find the admirable protagonist Tietjens as an officer at a starting off camp in the Great War.

It’s not an easy book to read or to understand. It’s literature for certain and woth the effort to read it. But I feel like I need a professor of English nearby to explain the difficult bits to me.

There’s themes and sub-themes jostling for position and through it all, the admirable Tietjens just soldiers along with his stained tunic and his creased tie askew.
