Ford Madox Ford
Ford Madox Ford, writer of 'Parade's End' and 'The Good Solider', joins Morley and Hemingway as another member of the writing posse of 1920s Paris. He is 'solidly imposing with his walrus moustache' (Callaghan 1963) and Morley Callaghan appears to feel a distance between them. During a gathering one evening, Ford produces a cake (as depicted in the Manyeyes tool below), stating that everyone must compete for the cake - by writing their own sonnet!
Although the writer is depicted as being a popular man, Callaghan's apparent dislike for him is clear when he slyly comments that 'being gassed in the war gave Ford a great advantage' (Callaghan 1963).
