The English fiction writer and essayist E. M. Forster is noted for his novels that examine class difference and hypocrisy. Famous masterpieces such as ‘A Room with a View’, ‘Howards End’ and ‘A Passage to India’ were recognised for their brilliance of perception and penetrating social commentary, winning Forster great success and he was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 16 separate years. In addition to a large body of essays and short stories, Forster wrote a biography of his great-aunt, Marianne Thornton, a vivid documentary account of his Indian experiences, ‘The Hill of Devi’, and ‘Maurice’, a novel with a homosexual theme, published posthumously, but written many years before. For the first time in publishing history, this eBook presents Forster’s complete works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
