Description
Where Angels Fear to Tread is a witty comedy of manners that explores the complexities of character and virtue. E. M. Forster's first novel tells the story of a woman who finds herself at the centre of a cultural clash, as she navigates a relationship with a much younger Italian man in a small Tuscan town.
The novel is a subtle attack on the decorous values of Edwardian England, yet it also offers a humanely sympathetic portrayal of the clash of two cultures. With its nuanced exploration of human nature, Where Angels Fear to Tread is a thought-provoking read that will appeal to fans of character-driven fiction.
Published in 2012, this edition is part of the Penguin English Library series, which celebrates 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century to the beginning of the First World War.
