‘When we were only acquaintances, you let me be myself, but now you’re always protecting me… I won’t be protected. I will choose for myself what is ladylike and right. To shield me is an insult. Can’t I be trusted to face the truth but I must get it second-hand through you? A woman’s place!’Synopsis
E.M. Forster’s perceptive portrayal of the English character stands out for its wit and intelligence. Additionally, in this story of sharp contrasts—in morals, social class, and cultural perspectives—a traditional romantic engagement leads to conventional bliss in a humorous social comedy.While travelling across Italy with her controlling cousin, well-educated Lucy Honeychurch falls in love with the lovely but totally inappropriate George Emerson. She later gets engaged to the haughty Cecil Vyse. However, Lucy is pulled away from upper middle-class Edwardian conventions by her longings for the clerk she left behind. The 20th century classic and Forster’s best-known work, A Room with a View, mocks the English concept of respectability. A must read classic by E.M. Forster.

Sneak Peak
‘Overhearing Starbuck, the panic-stricken crew instantly ran to the braces—though not a sail was left aloft. For the moment all the aghast mate’s thoughts seemed theirs; they raised a half mutinous cry. But dashing the rattling lightning links to the deck, and snatching the burning harpoon, Ahab waved it like a torch among them; swearing to transfix with it the first sailor that but cast loose a rope’s end. Petrified by his aspect, and still more shrinking from the fiery dart that he held, the men fell back in dismay…’Synopsis
In part, Moby Dick tells the tale of a terrifyingly alluring maniac who waged an abominable battle against a being that was as colossal, perilous, and incomprehensible as the ocean itself. The book can be considered as a part of the author’s lifelong reflection on America and can be seen as more than just an adventure tale or an encyclopaedia of whaling lore and tradition. Moby Dick is a serious examination of character, faith, and the nature of perception that is also written with a lovely sense of redemptive comedy.A Stunning Reprint
