Maid in Waiting is the beginning novel in the last trilogy of
John Galsworthy's Forsyte Chronicles. In this seventh installment, the story
continues of the lives and times, loves and losses, fortunes and deaths of the
fictional but entirely representative family of propertied Victorians, the Forsytes.
The Forsyte Chronicles has become established as one of the most popular and
enduring works of twentieth century literature, described by the New York
Times as "A social satire of epic proportions and one that does not suffer by
comparison with Thackeray's Vanity Fair...the whole comedy of manners,
convincing both in its fidelity to life and as a work of art."
