This 1912 play focuses on one of Galsworthy's perennial subjects:  the injustice inherent in an economic and political system that privileges the rich over the poor—in this case, in the realm of marriage.  Through a plot involving two forced marriages, Galsworthy exposes middle- and upper-class hypocrisy.
