Produktbeschreibung

Die tragikomische Geschichte eines Liebesverrats."Dies ist die traurigste Geschichte, die ich je gehört habe. Neun Jahre hindurch hatten wir während der Kursaison in Bad Nauheim mit den Ashburnhams in der größten Vertrautheit verkehrt - oder vielmehr in einem Verhältnis zu ihnen gestanden, das so lose und doch so eng war wie das eines guten Handschuhs mit Ihrer Hand. Meine Frau und ich kannten Hauptmann Ashburnham so gut wie man jemanden nur kennen kann, und doch wußten wir andererseits auch wieder gar nichts von ihnen.
'All the world was mad around her and she herself, agonized, took on the complexion of a mad woman; of a woman very wicked.'

In 'the saddest story I have ever heard', a naïve American abroad unfolds a devastating tale of two seemingly respectable Edwardian marriages destroyed by infidelity and lies.

Born in Devon in 1873, and educated in England, Germany and France, Ford changed his original surname, Hueffer, in 1919, after having served with the British army in World War I (1914-1918). He wrote over 60 works including novels, poems, criticism,travel essays and reminiscences, Ford also edited the English Review (1908-11) and the Transatlantic Review (1924, Paris). THE GOOD SOLDIER (1915) is considered his masterpiece. From 1927 on Ford lived in the United States and in France.
