About this product

Product Information

Wit and intelligence are the hallmarks of these two probing portraits of the English character written by E.M. Forster. Both are stories of extreme contrasts--in values, social class and cultural perspectives. Romantic relationships lead to conventional happiness in the delightful social comedy A Room with a View , and to unexpected scandal in the richer, deeply moving novel Howards End . Howards End , which rivals A Passage to India as Forster's greatest work, makes a country house in Hertfordshire the center and the symbol for what Lionel Trilling called a class war about who would inherit England. Commerce clashes with culture, greed with gentility. A Room with a View brings home the stuffiness of upper-middle-class Edwardian society in a tremendously funny comedy that pairs a well-bred young lady with a lusty railway clerk and satirizes both the clergy and the English notion of respectability. Quintessentially British, these two novels have become twentieth-century classics. With an introduction and bibliography by Benjamin DeMott.

E. M. Forster at his very best !!!
If you enjoyed the movie version of these E. M. Forster novels, then you will thoroughly enjoy the printed version of them which delve deeper into character and plot development. These two novels being my first ventures in the works of this great British author, I was thoroughly impressed with his sophisticated writing style with its truly extraordinary power to paint vivid mental images of the beautiful, unspoiled British and Italian countryside of that era. Having seen the excellent movie versions before reading the books afforded me the luxury of picturing Emma Thompson,Anthony Hopkins, and Helena Bonham Carter as the characters and stories play out in the book. This is a masterful peek into the societal workings of high-society, Edwardian England. Movie critic, Roger Ebert has called HOWARDS END, quote: one of the greatest novels of the 20th century. This is E. M. Forster as his very best.Read full review

E.M. Forster was a genius who would not have had his work published without the Hogarth Press.
My computer has conked out so I have been unable to leave feedback. Am using a computer in the library. Thanks for speedy delivery.
