More about the book
Galsworthy's life was marked by a blend of privilege and artistic pursuit, transitioning from law to literature after an influential friendship with Joseph Conrad. His secretive affair with Ada Nemesis Pearson Cooper culminated in marriage in 1905. Known for tackling social issues, particularly class dynamics, his works like "The Forsyte Saga" critique upper-middle-class attitudes. Galsworthy championed various social causes, including women's rights and prison reform. His literary contributions earned him the Nobel Prize in 1932, shortly before his death in 1933.
