    First published in 1915, *The Good Soldier* can be described as a melodrama of English upper-class infidelities, intricately pieced together and retold in a non-linear fashion by a narrator who sometimes seems half-asleep. While this perspective holds some truth, many readers have recognized the novels enchanting voice, pioneering narrative style, and sharp portrayal of erotic repression as the hallmarks of a literary masterpiece.
