A Room with a View (Royal Collector's Edition) (Case Laminate Hardcover with Jacket), Hardcover/E. M. Forster

Miss Lucy Honeychurch is on a voyage to Florence, Italy, with her cousin Charlotte at a time when upper middle class English women were starting to lead more independent, adventurous lives. When they arrive, they discover that they have been given a room overlooking a drab courtyard, instead of a room with a view of the River Arno. What follows is a story of murder, romance, various marriage proposals, betrayal, and an opportunity for Lucy to find lifelong love. A Room with a View is E. M. Forster's lightest and most optimistic novel. It follows a young woman in the restrained culture of Edwardian era England. Set in Italy and England, the story is both a romance and a humorous critique of English society at the beginning of the 20th century. The Modern Library ranked A Room with a View 79th on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. This case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket. Book specifications: Dimensions: 229 x 152 Author: E. M.
