Description

Major Winton, a widower, watches daughter Gyp marry against his judgement and feels grief turn toward jealousy as her new life pulls away. Love, separation, and a father’s need to protect collide with her growing independence and fresh attachments that he cannot control. Parental devotion and emotional isolation, told as the hard, unfinished work of letting go.

Author

John Galsworthy (1867–1933) helped shape the English novel's passage from Victorian certainties to twentieth-century doubt. A barrister who turned to literature in his thirties, he wrote with an insider's knowledge of the leisured classes and a reformer's impatience with their complacency. The Forsyte Saga made him famous — a multi-generational study of money, marriage, and the hunger to own.
