Howards End

Howards End is a novel written by author E. M. Forster, first published in 1910. The house in the book was based on "Rook Nest," Forster's childhood home.

Howards End depicts the lives of three middle-class families - one rich, one intellectual, and one impecunious - in England at the beginning of the 20th Century.

• "Howards End is undoubtedly Forster's masterpiece; it develops to their full the themes and attitudes of [his] early books and throws back upon them a new and enhancing light." - Lionel Trilling

• "For readers living in such an age, the exhortation to "only connect" resonates ever more profoundly." - Alix Wilber

• "A true classic! Irony comes in double helpings here, as Forster presents many themes of opposites, such as city vs. country." - Amazon.com user review
