Product Description

An old English family, the Cherrells' constant in an age of change and uncertainty is their ancestral home, Condaford Grange. It is especially precious to young Elizabeth Cherrell, or "Dinny," whose family is everything to her. And when her brother faces extradition to South America, falsely accused of murder, and her cousin is threatened by her mentally unstable husband, Dinny does everything she can to shield them from harm.

5-0 out of 5 stars meet john galsworthy
JOHN GALSWORTHY WRITES LIKE SHAKESPEAR BUT WITH A TIME GAP THAT MAKES HIM UNDERSTANDABLE AND READABLE. HIS LOVE OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND HIS UNDERSTANDING OF HUMAN NATURE ARE WHAT MAKES HIM THE 19TH, 20TH AND 21ST CENTURIES OUTSTANDING AUTHOR. WHILE HE WRITES ABOUT ENGLAND IT COULD BE AMERICA BECAUSE HIS STORIES ARE OF HUMAN NATURE AT IT'S HONEST BEST AND WORST. I RECOMMEND THE "FORSYTE SAGA" FOR WHICH HE WON THE NOBLE PRIZE. HE IS PROBABLY THE FINEST WRITER IN THE LAST 200 YEARS.

2-0 out of 5 stars The escapades continue.
Dinny falls in love with a poet who might not be quite heterosexual.Dinny offers herself to him to, sort of, seal the deal and he responds, "Not now."

Of course the Charwells are upset because the poet, who had abandoned Christianity even more than them, converted to the Muslim religion with a gun at his head.They feel, with this action, the poet betrayed the entire British Foreign Service.Sir Mont's cousin is so upset that he has a knock down drag out with the poet.The cousin is 53 years old and supposedly had intentions towards Dinny.The poet is 38.Galsworthy considers both to be `young men'.I believe the cousin is jealous of the poet because the poet had come up with a great cover for his closet life.It reads like two queens bashing it out.We saw this in a Waymon Brothers skit on "In Living Color" so we know queens can be vicious.

Aunt Em has started embroidering.She, rapidly, is becoming the most interesting character in the series.

In the final chapter the General informs Dinny that the family is broke.Being ever so perfect she pops the dad with her money she obtained from hocking her jewelry and horse racing bets. ... Read more

The Forsyte Saga

I have been so overcome by Galsworthy's skill as a wordsmith, and so fascinated by his social commentary on this class of people, that I have broken away from the novel time and time again and done further research into Galsworthy and his own commentaries of his work, particularly on the Forsytes. From his wife, Ada's preface, through his intro, to his chosen dedications, I am enchanted. I feel remiss to not have read him before this time, but so grateful to have this ebook and to now enrich my life with these characters.

I have a personal love of British lit and am so pleased to find such great storytelling in this text. The Forsyte Saga is not so foreign in time and portrayal. Materialism still reigns and seduces and corrupts. Class one-up-manship still deludes. Self-importance and shallow values still prevail. Feet of clay forever are feet of clay.


5-0 out of 5 stars Highly recommend to all Galsworthy readers

Product Description

Fleur and Michael Mont entertain the glittering society characters of the day in their new, elegant, and fashionable house. As always, Fleur’s father—Soames Forsyte—is constantly by the side of his daughter, spoiling and watching over her. But London after the war is a place of carefree attitudes that are alarming and baffling to old Soames. Just when he thinks he is protecting his daughter, he finds himself triggering a major social scandal.

1-0 out of 5 stars same disappointment
story line not what I had expected. Rambling on about other people of the husband's family, and lost interest in the whole book.

4-0 out of 5 stars The Woman of Property
The Silver Spoon opens with the introduction of Frances Wilmot, the brother-in-law of Jon. He arrives at the Mont house with a letter of introduction for Fleur. Fleur herself is occupied with her son Kit and her life as a leading social figure.

It is that social life which is endangered in this book as an impoverished and slightly disreputable socialite (Marjorie Ferrar) makes a disparaging remark about Fleur as collector in a gossip column and sets off a storm. The fierce and public reaction of Soames leads to a libel suit being filed against Fleur and the issue of private morals is tried on the public stage. Fleur proves herself as stubborn as her father when a matter of principle is involved, and burns her own hands on changing public opinion.

The character of Marjorie is an interesting one. In the first Forsythe trilogy, the agents of moral change are drawn very kindly and are actually the heros and heroines of the books. By contrast, Marjorie as the typical flapper is as repellant as she is energetic. She clearly represents the new world, but the approval that the book has for her is just as clearly mixed. Her honesty speaks in her favor, but she is also visibly shallow and capable of great careless cruelty. She seems to represent the accelerating decay of standards and values and as such offers as bad an option as the inflexibility of the earlier generation of Forsythes. At one point in the book, her kindly grandfather asks, "If your idea of life is simply to have a good time, how can you promise anything?" It is a question that the book seems to be posing of itself.

The book is bound with "Passers By", an interlude in Washington in which Soames realizes that he, Fleur and Michael are in the same hotel as Irene, Jon and Anne. ... Read more

Product Description

Dinny Cherrell has been proposed to numerous times, but no one has ever come close to touching her independent spirit. That is, until she encounters Wilfred Desert. They had first met at Fleur and Michael Mont's wedding and the spark of attraction felt all those years before develops into a deep, all-consuming love. But Wilfred, a wanderer made cynical by the war, is a complicated and tortured soul. When his past actions come back to haunt him, and the disapproval of Dinny's family work against them, their love is tested to the very limit.

3-0 out of 5 stars The decline of the Forsytes
Here's my take (with a small spoiler) on the Forsytes, after finishing "The Flowering Wilderness", the eighth in the series:The first six books are excellent and well worth reading but the next two, with the central character of the first six absent, seem to lack purpose.They're well-written and enjoyable but I don't see the point.This is particularly true of "The Flowering Wilderness", which (to the modern reader) is full of extreme reactions to a minor incident. ...

1-0 out of 5 stars Too out of date
It is not without reason that the Forsyte Saga, A Modern Comedy and End of the Chapter are John Galsworthy's most famous books, dealing with the Forsytes. They are good reading and "timeless".
This is not true for The Saint's Progress, Beyond, and The Dark Flower, which are downright boring to modern readers. It is hard to believe that they were written by the same author! ... Read more
