Description

"The Forsyte Saga - Complete" by John Galsworthy is a series of three novels and two interludes published between 1906 and 1921. It chronicles the lives of an upper-middle-class English family acutely conscious of their "new money" status. At its center is Soames Forsyte, a solicitor who views himself as a "man of property" through his material possessions, yet finds no happiness. The saga explores marital discord, forbidden love, and family secrets that span generations, as the Forsytes navigate desire, betrayal, and the consequences of past actions.
