Born into a wealthy family, John Galsworthy pursued law before finding his passion in writing, influenced by friendships with notable figures like Joseph Conrad. His secretive affair with Ada Nemesis Pearson Cooper culminated in marriage after her divorce. Galsworthy's literary career began with short stories, but he gained prominence with works like "The Forsyte Saga," exploring themes of social class and the complexities of upper-middle-class life. An advocate for various social causes, he received the Nobel Prize in 1932 and passed away in 1933.
