Frederic Manning (1882-1935) was an Australian-born writer and poet, known primarily for his contributions to English literature. Manning's works often reflect his intellectual and bohemian interests, as well as his experiences as a soldier. Despite having published a number of poems and works of non-fiction, he is most celebrated for his later foray into fiction, which culminated in his highly acclaimed novel, 'Her Privates We' (also published as 'The Middle Parts of Fortune'), which drew on his experiences during World War I and is often cited as one of the greatest war novels of all time. 'Eidola', which demonstrates his literary prowess, is a collection of his poems that delves into the realm of the ethereal and grapples with the transient nature of ideals and emotions. Manning's literary style is noted for its stark realism and psychological depth, probing the complex emotions of his characters and the impacts of war. His writing is characterized by a strong narrative voice and a keen eye for the intricacies of human nature, which has made his work resonate with readers and critics alike. Although not as prolific as some of his contemporaries, Manning's body of work has earned him a respected place in the annals of English literature.
