SIXTH VOLUME OF THE “FORSYTE SAGA”
FIRST ISSUE SOLD OUT The first issue of Galsworthy's new novel, “Swan Song,” was completely sold out weeks before the date of publication. The first issue runs into 45,000 copies, and the second issue is now being printed. This book, most of which was written during the author’s stay in South Africa, and which it is understood contains many South African touches, is the last and sixth volume of the famous “Forsyte Saga.” So great was the interest on the Continent in “Swan Song” that an airplane was specially chartered to take copies to Leipzig, Zurich, Vienna and Budapest the day the book was published in England.
