The Forsyte Saga: The White Monkey (4) - Softcover
It's 1922 and Fleur Forsyte is now married to Michael Mont. Fleur throws herself into the roaring 20s with the rest of London, taking life as it comes. But the marriage is haunted by the ghost of a past love affair, and however vibrant Fleur appears, those closest to her sense her unhappiness. Michael, devoted to Fleur but not blind to her faults, is determined to stand by her through anything. He also finds himself caught up in the tragic and poignant story of a young couple struggling for survival in an age of unemployment and extreme poverty.

About the Author:
Review:
John Galsworthy was born on August 14, 1867, in Surrey and came from an established, wealthy family. Called to the Bar in 1890, he soon decided to abandon law and turn to writing. THE FORSYTE SAGA is his most celebrated work, but he was also a successful dramatist. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1932.
In 1891 Galsworthy met his cousin's wife Ada Nemesis Pearson and they embarked on a scandalous affair, eventually marrying after Ada's divorce in 1905. John Galsworthy died on January 31, 1933.
Just because they were set in a world of frock-coats and ornate drawing rooms, we should not be blind to their modern dilemmas... the satire is sharp, the dialogue, elegant and witty, and the characterisation - dazzling―Scotsman
The books I most wish I'd written―Penny Vincenzi
THE FORSYTE SAGA was such a cracking good story...compulsive, as well as very modern and outrageous―Sunday Times
Still a terrific read, a satisfying, long, absorbing family story...which knocks spots off its pale imitators―Susan Hill
Praise for THE FORSYTE SAGA: 'An immortal achievement...it is, at all levels, readability itself―Financial Times
