The Voysey Inheritance

Edward Voysey has just been made a junior partner in the highly respected family law firm. Conflicts arise when Edward discovers that clients' capital has been "borrowed" by the firm to speculate in the stock market. The inheritance of the title is the obligation bestowed on Edward to restore the borrowed money. Often considered Granville-Barker's most important play, The Voysey Inheritance confronts basic human conflicts which remain unchanged a hundred years after it was written.
