A Room With A View

This Edwardian bildungsroman places, at times, an awkward Lucy Honeychurch on the cusp of womanhood who is first on the puppet strings of her elder cousin and then her fiancee. What ensues is a comic satire on the mores of early 1900s England, both at home and abroad in Italy. Lucy could be annoying if seen through our modern-day sensibilities, but I rooted for her all the way. Will have to read more Forster.

A fantastic read. Almost word for word with the film. A good look at how snobbish people can be.
