Regarded as E.M. Forsters crowning achievement and one of the defining works of the 20th century, Howards End delves into the intricate social dynamics of the Edwardian era. This compelling narrative weaves together the lives of three distinct families in early 20th century England the wealthy Wilcoxes, who have amassed their fortune through colonial ventures; the culturally inclined Schlegel siblings—Margaret, Helen, and Tibby—whose interests echo the ideals of the Bloomsbury Group; and the struggling Basts, a young couple grappling with the challenges of lower-class existence. With their idealism and intelligence, the Schlegel sisters strive to uplift the Basts while challenging the Wilcoxes to confront their entrenched social and economic biases. - Summary by Lynne ThompsonCopyright Fiction Classics アート 文学史・文学批評 社会科学 科学
