For the Love of Forster
I've decided to make this an E.M. Forster summer for my reading pleasure. I recently started reading (again) A Room With A View, one of my favorite novels of all time. I will also roll through Maurice, Where Angels Fear to Tread and Howard's End. I think I will tackle finally A Passage to India, the only Forster novel I haven't directly engaged in some way. Finally, I am going to read Zadie Smith's On Beauty, which apparently was inspired by Howard's End. I don't think I've ever made a reading list for the summer; things change. If I commit myself to this roster of novels, then I will finish long before summer's end. And that's okay. This will be the year of the self indulgent Edwardian summer.
