Description

E.M. Forster's Maurice is a deeply personal and powerful novel that explores the complexities of love, identity, and societal repression. First published posthumously in 1970, this Penguin Classic edition reproduces the Abinger text of the novel, accompanied by new notes, a chronology, and further reading. The story follows Maurice Hall, a young man growing up in a privileged society, as he navigates his own desires and the constraints placed upon him. Through his relationships with Clive and Alec, Maurice experiences a profound emotional and sexual awakening, leading to a tale of passion, bravery, and defiance. This edition of Maurice offers a compelling exploration of the human experience, one that continues to resonate with readers today. With an introduction by David Leavitt, this Penguin Classic edition provides a nuanced understanding of the novel's significance and its place in the literary canon.
