The Forsyte Saga is a series of three novels and two interludes
(intervening episodes) published between 1906 and 1921 by Nobel
Prize-winning English author John Galsworthy. They chronicle the
vicissitudes of the leading members of an upper middle-class
British family, similar to Galsworthy's own. Only a few generations
removed from their farmer ancestors, the family members are keenly
aware of their status as "new money." The main character, Soames
Forsyte, sees himself as a "man of property" by virtue of his
ability to accumulate material possessions-but this does not
succeed in bringing him pleasure. John Galsworthy (14 August 1867 -
31 January 1933) was an English novelist and playwright. Notable
works include The Forsyte Saga (1906-1921) and its sequels, A
Modern Comedy and End of the Chapter. He won the Nobel Prize in
Literature in 1932. This is Volume I of a three volume set.
