Some Do Not (1924) is a novel by Ford Madox Ford, set during the First World War. The novel revolves around Christopher Tietjens, a brilliant statistician and wealthy aristocrat known as "the last Tory." As he moves from a faithless marriage into an affair, he eventually volunteers to fight under dubious motives, symbolizing a dying era dedicated to death, despair, and destruction.
Adapted for television twice, a 1964 series starring Ronald Hines and Judi Dench, and a 2012 series starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Rebecca Hall, Parades End is essential to Ford's reputation as a leading novelist of the twentieth century. W. H. Auden praised the novel, calling it "one of them."
In the years leading up to the Great War, Christopher Tietjens is known as a brilliant man with a distinguished past and a promising future. Behind his successful façade, he devotes himself to work to avoid confronting his unfaithful wife, Sylvia, a prominent aristocrat. Additionally, Tietjens feels alienated by a modernizing Britain that no longer belongs to the landed gentry from which he descends. Caught up in a passionate affair with a beautiful young Suffragette, he despairingly leaves his marriage and social life behind and enlists in the army at the onset of war with Germany, leaving his peers behind.
This edition of Ford Madox Ford's Some Do Not is a classic work of British literature reimagined for modern readers. The novel's beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript enhance the reading experience.
