Description

by E. M. Forster (Author)

Set in the elegant Edwardian world of Cambridge undergraduate life, this story by a master novelist introduces us to Maurice Hall when he is 14. We follow him through public school and Cambridge, and into his father's firm. In a highly structured society, Maurice is a conventional young man in almost every way--except that he is homosexual.

Written during 1913 and 1914, immediately after Howards End, and not published until 1971, Maurice was ahead of its time in its theme and in its affirmation that love between men can be happy. "Happiness," Forster wrote, "is its keynote....In Maurice I tried to create a character who was completely unlike myself or what I supposed myself to be: someone handsome, healthy, bodily attractive, mentally torpid, not a bad businessman and rather a snob. Into this mixture I dropped an ingredient that puzzles him, wakes him up, torments him and finally saves him."

*** ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Edward Morgan Forster (1879-1970) was an English author, educated at Cambridge. He was one of the major novelists of the first half of the 20th century, best known for his novels, particularly A Room with a View, Howards End and A Passage to India. He also wrote numerous short stories, essays, speeches and broadcasts, as well as a limited number of biographies and some pageant plays.
