Publisher Description
At old Jolyon Forsyte’s engagement party, the family’s alarm turns on a soft grey hat—so shabby that Aunt Hester once mistook it for a cat. What has June’s fiancé brought into their polished drawing room besides bad taste?
London, 1886: the Forsytes gather in their finest feathers and waistcoats to celebrate young June’s engagement to Philip Bosinney, an architect without a fortune. They are a family bound less by affection than by an iron grip on respectability and possessions; even Soames, with his habitual sniff, senses something unsafe in the newcomer. John Galsworthy’s saga follows that family instinct through love, money and the strains of changing generations, with a sharp eye for the comedy beneath its grand manners. Why does the arrival of one unconventional young man put the whole family so firmly on guard?
