Sleep With Classic Books

The Forsyte Saga by John Galsworthy (1906)


Listen Later

Tonight, we delve deep into the shadowed corridors and candle-lit drawing rooms of Victorian and Edwardian England, where the threads of personal desires and societal expectations weave a complex mosaic. In the somber quiet, we explore the silent struggles and subdued passions of characters like Soames and Irene Forsyte, each trapped in the intricate web of class and cultural norms. Together, we traverse the hazy line between possession and partnership, tradition and truth, witnessing the delicate dance of characters who seek freedom and fulfillment under the weight of oppressive conventions. As the day fades, let us discover the subtle shifts in the twilight of an era on the verge of change. This episode is hosted by Daniel Clark.
