Collected here are two E.M. Forster classics: "A Room With a View" and "Howards End," each a stand-alone masterpiece and both celebrated as among the finest novels of early 20th century literature.  


In the first, "A Room With a View" we follow the travels - both abroad and romantically - of young Lucy Honeychurch, who kindles a flirtation while on vacation in Italy, but then returns home to find herself in a passionless engagement. When the young man who stirred her heart in Florence becomes her neighbor in England, Lucy is faced with a dilemma: Break off her engagement to the society-approved Cecil Vyse or....follow her heart with the dashing George Emerson.  


In "Howards End" (considered by many to be Forster's finest work), we meet three families: the idealistic Schlegels, the fabulously wealthy Wilcoxes and the impoverished Basts. When Ruth, the ailing matriarch of the Wilcox family, secretly bequeaths her beloved country house Howards End to Margaret Schlegel, it launches a series of events - including family strife, infidelities, and a secret pregnancy - which threaten to destroy all three families.  


Long hailed as one of the most brilliant and beloved authors of the Edwardian era, E.M. Forster's works have become among the most critically acclaimed and cherished novels of the past hundred years and have been adapted numerous times for the stage and screen.  


"A Room With a View" and "Howards End" are presented here in their original and unabridged formats.

E. M. Forster

Edward Morgan Forster (1879–1970) was born in London and attended the Tonbridge School and King’s College, Cambridge. A substantial inheritance from his aunt gave Forster the freedom to pursue a literary career and travel extensively, and he wrote some of the finest novels of the twentieth century, including A Room with a View, A Passage to India, and Howards End. Queen Elizabeth II awarded him the Order of Merit in 1969.
