The Penguin English Library Edition of A Room with a View by E. M. Forster '"But you do," he went on, not waiting for contradiction. "You love the boy body and soul, plainly, directly, as he loves you, and no other word expresses it ..." Lucy has her rigid, middle-class life mapped out for her until she visits Florence with her uptight cousin Charlotte, and finds her neatly ordered existence thrown off balance. Her eyes are opened by the unconventional characters she meets at the Pension Bertolini: flamboyant romantic novelist Eleanor Lavish, the Cockney Signora, curious Mr Emerson and, most of all, his passionate son George. Lucy finds herself torn between the intensity of life in Italy and the repressed morals of Edwardian England, personified in her terminally dull fiancé Cecil Vyse. Will she ever learn to follow her own heart? The Penguin English Library - 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century and the very first novels to the beginning of the First World War.
E. M. Forster (1879–1970) was an English novelist, essayist, and short story writer, known for his keen social insight and exploration of class, human relationships, and cultural conflicts. His works often challenge the constraints of Edwardian society and examine the complexities of personal and political freedoms. Some of his best-known novels include A Room with a View, Howards End, and A Passage to India, with the latter winning the 1924 James Tait Black Memorial Prize. Forster’s works have had a lasting impact on both English literature and film adaptations.
