Reading The Last Post | Alexandria
Read The Last Post by Ford Madox Ford. Witnessing a shell-shocked soldier's psychological unraveling reveals the true cost of war in Ford's "The Last Post." As the final Tietjens novel explores trauma's ripple effects through family bonds, it boldly suggests that healing comes not from forgetting, but from embracing brokenness - a radical notion that challenged post-WWI society's "carry on" mentality.
