Set in freewheeling Florence, Italy, and sober Surrey, England, E. M. Forster’s beloved third novel follows young Lucy Honeychurch’s journey to self-discovery at a transitional moment in British society. As Lucy is exposed to opportunities previously not afforded to women, her mind―and heart―must open. Before long, she’s in love with an “unsuitable” man and is faced with an impossible choice: follow her heart or be pressured into propriety. A challenge to persistent Victorian ideals as well as a moving love story, A Room with a View has been celebrated for both its prescient view of women’s independence and its reminder to live an honest, authentic life. AmazonClassics brings you timeless works from the masters of storytelling. Ideal for anyone who wants to read a great work for the first time or rediscover an old favorite, these new editions open the door to literature’s most unforgettable characters and beloved worlds. Revised edition: Previously published as A Room with a View, this edition of A Room with a View (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

Born in Marylebone, England, Edward Morgan (E. M.) Forster (1879–1970) was a celebrated writer and novelist best known for A Room with a View, A Passage to India, and Howard’s End. Nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature on sixteen separate occasions, Forster’s impressive body of work includes six novels, dozens of short stories and essays, and a libretto. An ardent humanist, Forster’s belief in “curiosity, a free mind, belief in good taste, and belief in the human race” provided a frequent backdrop for his works, which often explored the constraints placed on human connection by class differences and perceived rules of propriety. He died at the age of ninety-one in Coventry, England.
