Over the River is the concluding volume of John Galsworthy's End of the Chapter trilogy, itself a successor to the celebrated Forsyte Saga. Set in 1930s England, the novel chronicles the turbulent life of Dinny Cherrell as she fights to protect her sister Clare from a bruising and very public divorce battle, while simultaneously navigating her own suppressed heartache. Written with Galsworthy's trademark blend of social acuity and emotional restraint, the narrative dissects the rigid codes of the English upper-middle class with unflinching precision. As one of Galsworthy's final works, completed just before his death in 1933, it stands as a poignant and masterful farewell to the world of characters he had spent decades chronicling, and a fitting close to an era of English literary fiction.
