About this title

Review:

"It is excellent to see a Broadview edition of this seminal modernist work. 'On Heaven' is an inspired choice for an appendix, as is the extract from Henry James: A Critical Study, which will enable the reader to trace Ford's application of his critical analyses. Biography, textual analysis, contemporary response - they're all here. The reader of this edition is well-equipped for satisfying engagement with Ford's great novel."--Sara Haslam
