About A Room with a View
A Room with a View is E. M. Forster’s third novel. It is one of his most widely-read works, and tells the story of a young woman named Lucy Honeychurch as she travels to Italy with her cousin and chaperone, Charlotte. During her time abroad, Lucy becomes acquainted with a man named George Emerson, but although she feels drawn to him, she eventually accepts a marriage proposal from another man. Torn between following her heart and conforming to society’s expectations, the novel charts Lucy’s struggles to face up to the truth of her own feelings and decide what she truly wants.
About E. M. Forster
E. M. Forster was an English writer who wrote six novels and a number of other works of fiction and non-fiction during his lifetime. His works often explore class differences and sexuality (Forster himself was gay, and his posthumous novel Maurice depicts a relationship between two men), and his literary output was shaped by his humanist beliefs. His best-known works include A Room with a View, Howards End and A Passage to India, all of which met with critical acclaim. Indeed, Forster was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature on 16 occasions, but he never won the award.
