One of the great works of fiction to emerge from World War I, featuring an introduction by Booker Prize winner Julian Barnes

A Penguin Classic

Consisting of four novels—Some Do Not . . ., No More Parades, A Man Could Stand Up, and The Last Post—Parade's End is the story of Christopher Tietjens and his journey from the secure world of Edwardian England into World War I and beyond. Both a portrait of a love triangle—among Tietjens; his beautiful and reckless wife, Sylvia; and the suffragette Valentine—and a depiction of life on the Western Front, Parade's End is one of the greatest fictional works of the twentieth century. Ranging from the drawing rooms of England to the trenches of France and moving between past and present, it is a haunting exploration of identity, loss, and memory.
