This 1907 novel—later specifically cited by the Nobel Committee—is set in an English country house that stands as a microcosm of genteel society, where Victorian mores are coming into conflict with the realities of modern industrial life. When young George Pendyce falls for a ‘common’ woman, the cracks in his family life are revealed.
