| biography:
| Writer and literary critic, born in Merton, Surrey, SE England, UK. He collaborated with Conrad on The Inheritors (1901) and Romance (1903), wrote The Good Soldier (1915) and over 80 other books of fiction and non-fiction, and founded the English Review (1908). After World War 1, he changed his name to Ford, and exiled himself to France and the USA, where he edited The Transatlantic Review (1924), wrote poetry, a series of war novels, and the tetralogy Parade's End (1920s). His appreciation of the works of Joyce, Pound, Cummings, and others, did much to shape the course of 20th-c writing. |
