Cover of John Galsworthy: The Pigeon (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) (ePUB)

This 1912 drama, subtitled ‘A Fantasy, ‘ is a sharp satire on the hypocrisies of those who set themselves up to help the less fortunate but who are really pursuing selfish agendas. Here Christopher Wellwyn, an artist of limited means, generously shares all that he has with anyone in need of it, alienating his practical daughter, Ann.
