"Some Do Not..." is the first volume of Ford Madox Ford's acclaimed tetralogy, "Parade's End." Set against the backdrop of World War I, the novel delves into the complexities of love, identity, and societal upheaval. The narrative revolves around Christopher Tietjens, an English aristocrat of moral integrity, whose sense of duty clashes with the changing values of the time. Tietjens grapples with his troubled marriage to the mercurial Sylvia, while an unexpected romance with the independent and forward-thinking Valentine adds layers of emotional depth.

The novel explores themes of loyalty, honor, and the profound impact of societal shifts, providing a profound and intricate portrait of a world on the brink of transformation.
The two young men-they were of the English public official class-sat in the perfectly appointed railway carriage. The leather straps to the windows were of virgin newness; the mirrors beneath the new luggage racks immaculate as if they had reflected very little; the bulging upholstery in its luxuriant, regulated curves was scarlet and yellow in an intricate, minute dragon pattern, the design of a geometrician in Cologne. The compartment smelt faintly, hygienically of admirable varnish; the train ran as smoothly-Tietjens remembered thinking-as British gilt-edged securities. It travelled fast; yet had it swayed or jolted over the rail joints, except at the curve before Tonbridge or over the points at Ashford where these eccentricities are expected and allowed for, Macmaster, Tietjens felt certain, would have written to the company. Perhaps he would even have written to The Times.
