ISBN: 1592244505 ISBN-13: 9781592244508 Publisher: Wildside Press OUR PRICE: $19.90 Product Type: Paperback - Other Formats Published: September 2003 Annotation: Trilling described THE LONGEST JOURNEY as "perhaps the most brilliant, the most dramatic, and the most passionate" of E.M. Forster's works. Certainly it's the most autobiographical -- but its form confuses many. Full of sudden death, hopeless love, and quaintly doomed relationships -- and yet for all that, it's an enormously engaging work. It was Forster's own favorite of his works; he felt that in Stephen he had created a living being. |

Contributor Bio(s): Forster, E. M.: - "Edward Morgan Forster (1879 - 1970) was an English novelist, short story writer, essayist and librettist. Many of his novels examined class difference and hypocrisy in early 20th-century British society, notably A Room with a View (1908), Howards End (1910), and A Passage to India (1924), which brought him his greatest success. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 16 different years." |
