A Man Could Stand Up

1926. A Novel. The third in a series that includes Some Do Not... and No More Parades. Ford's eccentric personality and varied output has been attributed to the obscurity of his achievements. The book begins: Slowly, amidst intolerable noises from, on the one hand the street and, on the other, from the large and voluminously echoing playground, the depths of the telephone began, for Valentine, to assume an aspect that, years ago it had used to have-of being a part of the supernatural paraphernalia of inscrutable Destiny.
