About
During a trip to Florence, young Englishwoman Lucy Honeychurch has a fateful encounter with the freethinking George Emerson, whose passionate honesty unsettles her carefully arranged Edwardian world. Torn between her prim fiancé Cecil Vyse and the vitality George represents, Lucy must decide whether to obey the conventions of her class or follow her own heart. E. M. Forster contrasts the sunlit spontaneity of Italy with the stifling propriety of English society, crafting a sharp yet tender comedy of manners. It remains one of the most beloved romances in English literature, a story about learning to truly see the world and oneself.
