Descriere magazin:
Although he is best known for his novels-several of which have been made into popular movies-E.M. Forster also published stories. This volume, which collects those stories published during Forster\'s lifetime, provides an opportunity for readers to discover these less familiar works. Rich in irony and alive with sharp observations on the surprises life holds, the stories often feature violent events, discomforting coincidences, and other disruptive happenings that throw the characters\' perceptions and beliefs off balance. In their keen Introduction, David Leavitt and Mark Mitchell discuss Forster\'s place in both the short-story tradition and in the tradition of gay literature. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators. About the Author: Edward Morgan Forster was born in London in 1879, attended Tonbridge School as a day boy, and went on to King\'s College, Cambridge, in 1897. With King\'s he had a lifelong connection and was elected to an Honorary Fellowship in 1946. He declared that his life as a whole had not been dramatic, and he was unfailingly modest about his achievements. Interviewed by the BBC on his eightieth birthday, he said: \'I have not written as much as I\'d like to . . . I write for two reasons: partly to make money and partly to win the respect of people whom I respect . . . I had better add that I am quite sure I am not a great novelist.\' Eminent critics and the general public have judged otherwise and in his obituary The Times called him \'one of the most esteemed English novelists of his time\'. He wrote six novels, four of which appeared before the First World War, Where Angels Fear to Tread (1905), The Longest Journey (1907), A Room with a View (1908), and Howard\'s End (1910). An interval of fourteen years elapsed before he published A Passage to India . It won both the Prix Femina Vie Heureuse and the James Tait Black Memorial Prize. Maurice , his novel on a homosexual theme, finished in 1914, was published posthumously in 1971. He also published two volumes of short stories; two collections of essays; a critical work, Aspects of the Novel ; The Hill of Devi , a fascinating record of two visits Forster made to the Indian State of Dewas Senior; two biographies; two books about Alexandria (where he worked for the Red Cross in the First World War); and, with Eric Crozier, the libretto for Britten\'s opera Billy Budd . He died in June 1970.
