It's time to rediscover the wonderful books we all cherish.

Published in 1908, A Room with A View is one of E. M. Forster's most celebrated works. Forster explores love among a cast of eccentric characters gathered in an Italian pension and in a corner of Surrey, England. Caught up in a world of social snobbery, Lucy Honeychurch must make a decision that will decide the course of her future: She is forced to choose between convention and passion.

    So bittersweetly delightful... Somewhat reminescent of Henry James, but just somewhat. I can't help seeing Lucy as a more constricted Isabel Archer. And that funny (or perhaps not so funny, after all...) notion od the power Italy has of melting some layer of Britishness...

  • I've lost the count of how many times I've read this book. It's witty and funny, with in addition a flavour of romanticism. With Pride and Prejudice, this is the book I use to fight bad mood!

  • Great light reading. Memorable characters. Forester does a marvelous job with charcter development and adding depth to seemingly dry personalities. Another re-read!

  • The English. Tuscany. Forster can be quite hard to read at times, but this is much more approachable than most of his other novels.
