The Freelands is a novel written by John Galsworthy, first published in 1915. The story revolves around the Freelands family, who are wealthy and influential in their community. The head of the family, Colonel Robert Freeland, is a respected and successful businessman who has built his fortune through hard work and determination.The novel explores the lives of the Freelands, their relationships with each other, and their place in society. It also delves into the themes of class, wealth, and power, as well as the changing social and political landscape of early 20th century England.The plot centers around two main characters, Dinny Cherrell and Wilfrid Desert. Dinny is a young woman from a middle-class background who becomes involved with the Freelands when she falls in love with Colonel Freeland's son, Hubert. Wilfrid is a wealthy and influential man who becomes embroiled in a scandal involving the Freelands and their business dealings.As the story unfolds, Dinny and Wilfrid find themselves drawn together, despite their different backgrounds and social standing. Together, they navigate the complex world of the Freelands and the challenges they face as they try to find their place in society.The Freelands is a richly detailed and thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of human relationships and the social and economic forces that shape our lives. It is a timeless work of literature that continues to resonate with readers today.The next day Stanley's car, fraught with Felix and a note from Clara, moved swiftly along the grass-bordered roads toward Joyfields. Lying back on the cushioned seat, the warm air flying at his face, Felix contemplated with delight his favorite countryside. Certainly this garden of England was very lovely, its greenness, trees, and large, pied, lazy cattle; its very emptiness of human beings even was pleasing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
