About this book

A visitor with two small children interrupts the orderly morning of a solicitor's office. Ruth Honeywill needs to speak to William Falder, a frightened young clerk, about leaving a dangerous home. Their urgent private plans sit uneasily beside the firm's rules, accounts and routine paperwork. John Galsworthy builds this 1910 play around the distance between a person's circumstances and the official judgment passed upon them.

Across four acts, the setting moves from the office to a courtroom and prison, then returns to the workplace. A forgery case brings arguments about responsibility, emotional strain, mercy and deterrence into direct conflict. The managing clerk Cokeson's concern for people contrasts with the authority of professional rules.
