A Room With a View* published in 1908 to both critical and popular acclaim, is an imaginative comedy of manners that depicts a young Englishwoman trying to come to grips with the conflict between her desires and society's expectations.

Forster's most memorably romantic exploration of the liberating effects of Italy on the English, A Room with a View follows the closely chaperoned Lucy Honeychurch to Florence, where she meets the eccentric George Emerson and finds herself inspired by his refreshingly free spirit--thus putting her in mind to escape the claustrophobic snobbery of her guardians back in England.

Its moral is utterly simple: throw away your etiquette book and listen to your heart!


E.M. FORSTER (1879-1970) was an English novelist, short-story writer, essayist, and librettist. He is best known for Maurice, A Passage To India, Howard's End, and A Room With A View.


* The Modern Library has listed A Room With a View as one of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century.
