Description

First published anonymously in 1929 because its language was considered far too frank for public circulation, The Middle Parts of Fortunewas hailed by T.S. Eliot and Ezra Pound, by Lawrence of Arabia and Ernest Hemingway as an extraordinary novel. Its author was in fact Frederic Manning,an Australian writer who fought in the Battle of the Somme in 1916, and who told his story of men at war from the perspective of an ordinary soldier. The Middle Parts of Fortuneis now recognised as a twentieth-century classic.
