Not a bad story but hopelessly oldfashioned. For me at least. ( ) Acquired via BookCrossing 30 May 2009 - bags from Julie & Barry A Galsworthy separate from the Forsyte Saga but with similar themes and of course style. We meet Mark Lennan at three stages of his life and loves: first as a young man in love with his professor's wife; then in mid-years in a romantic attachment with a married woman (echoes of the Forsyte Saga here although it ends in melodrama which was maybe a bit silly); and then as a mid-40s married man with his head turned by a much younger woman. Atmospheric and evocative, patterned (he flees to Italy after each episode) but not too much so, and although a little dispiriting, a lovely piece of writing. As the introduction says, it's a shame that Galsworthy is not more appreciated these days, as his acqaintance Conrad is. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Classic Literature.
Fiction.
HTML: The keen insight and multidimensional characters that enliven the works of English novelist John Galsworthy, such as The Forsyte Saga, are also brought to bear in The Dark Flower. This emotionally gripping tale focuses on the intertwined fates of four women, each of whom is facing a critical juncture in her life. .Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
