Fraternity

Fraternity

by John Galsworthy

Set in early 20th-century England, *Fraternity* explores themes of social class, artistic expression, and the complexities of human relationships. The narrative revolves around a peculiar upper-class love triangle entangled with the enigmatic presence of a mystical tract. Galsworthy's sharp wit and insightful observations expose the hypocrisy and superficiality of the upper class, while simultaneously examining the struggles and aspirations of artists navigating a restrictive society.
