Edward Morgan Forster (1879 - 1970) was an English novelist, short story writer, essayist and librettist. He is known best for his ironic and well-plotted novels examining class difference and hypocrisy in early 20th-century British society. Foster is the novelist who can be read again and again and who, after each reading, gives what few writers can give us after our first days of novel-reading, the sensation of having learned something else. In this book: The Celestial Omnibus and other stories (1911) Howard's End, (1910) Where Angels Fear to Tread, (1905) A Room with a View, (1908) The longest Journey, (1907)
