Description

John Galsworthy (1867–1933) is an outstanding English novelist and playwright, author of the famous book cycle “The Forsyte Saga,” Nobel Prize laureate in Literature. We present his novel “The Dark Flower” in an audio format.

This book is in many ways philosophical: the author considers love and passion, studies their nature, sometimes giving them destructive traits and metaphorically comparing them to the fragrance of the “dark flower.” There is one hero in the novel, but his romantic involvement is described across different periods of his life. A distinctive feature of the book is that the description of the hero’s confusion and experiences prevails over the plot and events.

We offer you the chance to become acquainted with this landmark novel in audio format.
