Strife

Strife is a novel written by the British author John Galsworthy, first published in 1909. The book tells the story of a labor strike at a Welsh tin mine and the conflicts that arise between the workers and the mine's management. The central character is the mine's owner, John Anthony, who is determined to break the strike and maintain his authority over the workers. The novel explores themes of class struggle, power dynamics, and the impact of industrialization on society. Galsworthy's writing is known for its social realism and attention to detail, and Strife is no exception. The book is a powerful commentary on the struggles of working-class people during the early 20th century and remains relevant today.WILDER. [Breaking in fussily.] It's a regular mess.
