"The third part of Ford's great novel of WWI, the Tietjens family, and the degrading of English society, "Parade's End." The title refers to an imagined time when a man could literally stand up, instead of living in a trench. Or figuratively stand for a strict set of values and conduct which society no longer recognizes."
"Surrounded by the jubilation of Armistice Day, Valentine Wannop receives a telephone call which brings alarming news of her dear friend Christopher Tietjens. For whilst she strains to hear against the racket of celebratory firecrackers, Christopher's mind still echoes with the bombardments and horrors he endured in the hell of the Front. With trepidation, harbouring deep concerns over his mental equilibrium, the pacifist Valentine must seek out Christopher once more - but what will come of their reunion?"
