Maurice

Viac o knihe

Written during 1913 and 1914, immediately after 'Howards End', and not published until 1971, 'Maurice' was ahead of its time in its theme and in its affirmation that love between men can be happy. 'Happiness', Forster wrote, is its keynote... In 'Maurice' the author tried to create a character who was completely unlike himself or what he supposed himself to be - someone handsome, healthy, bodily attractive, mentally torpid, not a bad businessman and rather a snob.
