The Fugitive: Series 3 by John Galsworthy delves into the theme of marital incompatibility, similar to his earlier work in the Forsyte Saga. The play follows a sensitive individual who is married to a stolid and prosaic partner who is unaware of the impending disaster. Unlike the Forsyte Saga, the sensitive partner has no premonition or hesitation and is blindsided by the situation. The play portrays the complexities of marriage, inheritance, and class in society. As with Galsworthy's other works, The Fugitive: Series 3 offers a tragic end that highlights the helplessness of an innocent person caught in the grinding wheels of societal norms. The play portrays the victimization of women who choose to go against the supposed morality by demanding separation from their husbands without first ensuring a more powerful protector of sorts, such as a blood relative or another lover. The Fugitive: Series 3 is not unlike the societal setup depicted in the autobiographical work of Tehmina Durrani, which exposes the victimization of women who choose to step out of societal norms.
