Howards End
'Howards End' Summary
Howards End is a complex and moving novel that explores the complexities of class, social change, and personal relationships in early 20th-century England. It centers around three families representing different social strata: the wealthy and materialistic Wilcoxes, the intellectual and idealistic Schlegels, and the struggling lower-middle-class Basts. The story unfolds through the interactions between these families, exploring themes of love, loss, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. Forster's insightful portrayal of characters and his exploration of the social and economic forces shaping their lives make Howards End a timeless and powerful work of literature.Book Details
