«Regreso a Howards End» is E.M. Forster's fourth novel, published by RBA in 2004 in hardback, 494 pages, in Spanish.
Set in Edwardian England, the novel contrasts the Wilcoxes, a wealthy and materialistic family, with the cultured, progressive Schlegel sisters, and with Leonard Bast, a young working-class clerk who aspires to culture. Their lives intersect and Forster examines class tensions, gender, love and loss.
The work was originally published in 1910 as Howards End; this Spanish edition is from 2004.
Reading for those seeking a classic British novel and a portrait of Edwardian society.
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.
