Opis

This anthology of essays on E.M. Forster's major novels draws together approaches from many aspects of new critical theory. As well as essays on The Longest Journey, A Room With a View, Maurice, Howards End and A Passage to India, the volume includes a specially-commissioned essay on the recent spate of Forster films. The casebook establishes a new case for Forster as a figure of more than merely conventional interest with a central place in twentieth-century literature.
