Viac o knihe

"As the nineteenth century draws to a close the upper middle classes, with their property and propriety, are a diminishing section of society. The Forsytes are deliberately blind to this fact, surrounding themselves with a self-righteous conventionality and a determination to maintain the status quo. Soames Forsyte struggles to uphold a moral code in the face of the social revolution resulting from the Great War and his wife's extraordinary but disruptive beauty. A dignified but pathetic figure, he is the thread that runs through this first volume of Galsworthy's master work."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

I když se jedná o velmi ceněné dílo i autora, kniha kvůli rozsahu může působit nepřehledně. Když se čtenář ale zorientuje, rodinný příběh ho pohltí.
