«La mansión» (Regreso a Howards End) is the novel by E. M. Forster published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (343 pages, in Spanish).
The cultured and liberal sisters Margaret and Helen Schlegel interact with the wealthy and pragmatic Wilcox family in early 20th-century London. Howards End, the Wilcoxes' country house, becomes the axis of a novel about class differences, social prejudices, and the conflict between inner and outer life.
The novel was originally published in 1910 under the title Howards End; this Spanish edition uses the translation by Eduardo Mendoza.
Recommended for readers of classic fiction and British literature interested in early 20th-century novels with social criticism.
Edward Morgan Forster was an English author. He is best known for his novels, particularly A Room with a View (1908), Howards End (1910) and A Passage to India (1924). He also wrote numerous short stories, essays, speeches and broadcasts, as well as biographies and pageant plays. His short story "The Machine Stops" (1909) is often viewed as the beginning of technological dystopian fiction. He also co-authored the libretto to Benjamin Britten's opera Billy Budd (1951). Many of his novels examine class differences and hypocrisy. His views as a humanist are at the heart of his work.
