Longest Journey
'Longest Journey' Summary
The Longest Journey follows the intertwined lives of Rickie Elliot, a sensitive and artistic young man, and Agnes Pembroke, a woman engaged to his former bully. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Cambridge University, the novel explores themes of love, friendship, class, and the search for identity. Rickie's struggle with his physical disability and his emotional vulnerability are central to the narrative, as is the complex web of relationships that unfolds between him, Agnes, her fiancé Gerald, and their circle of friends. Forster's lyrical prose and insightful observations on human nature make this a poignant and enduring work.Book Details
