A Room with a View by E. M.

After encountering a man named George Emerson during a trip to Italy with her older cousin Charlotte, Lucy finds herself increasingly drawn to him, but class differences, Charlotte’s regard for propriety and the arrival of another suitor, Cecil Vyse, threaten to keep Lucy and George apart.

E. M. FORSTER
ENGLISH NOVELIST, SHORT STORY WRITER, ESSAYIST AND LIBRETTIST
Born in Marylebone (England) in 1879.Died in Coventry (England) in 1970.Notable works:Howards End (1910), novelA Passage to India (1924), novelMaurice (1971), novel [published posthumously]Forster’s father, an architect, died when he was two years old. In 1883, he and his mother moved to Rooks Nest in Hertfordshire, which later served as the model for Howards End in his novel of the same name. From 1897 to 1901 he attended King’s College Cambridge, where he was a member of the Apostles discussion society, which met in secret to debate philosophy. He was a conscientious objector to World War I and travelled to Egypt, Germany and India in 1914. He was homosexual but, whilst this was known by his close friends, he was never publicly open about his sexuality. He had a long-term relationship with a married policeman, Benjamin Buckingham, and when he died of a stroke aged 91, his ashes were mixed with Buckingham’s and scattered in the cemetery in Coventry. Forster published five novels during his lifetime; although he wrote Maurice some 60 years before, he asked that it only be published after his death, due to the homosexual relationship at the centre of the novel, which may have been influenced by his own relationships. He never finished his seventh novel, Arctic Summer.
