Produktbeschreibung
Parade’s End is a series of four novels depicting the meeting, courtship, and ultimate fulfilment of two modern heroes, Christopher Tietjens and Valentine Wannop, despite social condemnation, personal travails, and World War I.

"Last Post", the fourth novel and final volume, is set on a single summer’s day and follows the characters into the unsettling and often disorientating postwar world. With fluency, humour and great skill, this narrative explores their individual memories, hopes, and uncertainties, while also subtly questioning the current and future state of England.

Widely acclaimed when first published in the 1920s, Parade’s End is one of the outstanding works about the Great War and British society before, during, and after that cataclysm. A major work of Modernism, it is an investigation of time, history, and sexuality.
