5/27/2023 0 Comments Maurice by E.M. Forster![]() ![]() ![]() I remember how shocked I was when I finished a story written in the beginning of the twentieth century and finding that yes, it ends happily (or at least as happily as it could with just a touch of open ending). In essence this story is about Maurice growing up, becoming a man, finding a person he loves and loves him back, and hopefully having his happy ending – as we all know such stories belong to genre Romance. Sirius: I first read Maurice three or four years ago and really loved it, but I never thought I would end up reviewing it.įor those of you who have not read it yet (do!), as the blurb tells you the story is about Maurice Hall, whom we meet for the first time when he is a fourteen year old boy preparing to go to another school. In a highly structured society, Maurice is a conventional young man in almost every way-except that he is homosexual. ![]() We follow him through public school and Cambridge, and into his father’s firm. ![]() Set in the elegant Edwardian world of Cambridge undergraduate life, this story by a master novelist introduces us to Maurice Hall when he is fourteen. ![]()
