Ilustration During Books Maurice

Maurice is heartbroken over unrequited love, which opened his heart and mind to his own sexual identity. In order to be true to himself, he goes against the grain of society’s often unspoken rules of class, wealth, and politics. Forster understood that his homage to same-sex love, if published when he completed it in 1914, would probably end his career. Thus, Maurice languished in a drawer for fifty-seven years, the author requesting it be published only after his death (along with his stories about homosexuality later collected in The Life to Come). Since its release in 1971, Maurice has been widely read and praised. It has been, and continues to be, adapted for major stage productions, including the 1987 Oscar-nominated film adaptation starring Hugh Grant and James Wilby.

Assess Regarding Books Maurice

Possibly my new favourite book of the year so far. I absolutely loved this one - beautiful, moving, such a powerful read.

Maurice is a novel that isn't perfect, but that is beautiful in its imperfection. A bit of an unpolished diamond, I might add, like some other classics I remember fondly despite their minor flaws. I admit it's been a while since I read this novel, and I never really found the time to reread it, which is a shame, but I do have an old review of mine at hand, and I will use it to remind myself. Recently I have read Dandy, a contemporary novel with a similar theme of homosexual love set in past

Vladimir Nabokov wrote in Pnin: Some peopleand I am one of themhate happy ends. We feel cheated. Harm is the norm. Doom should not jam. The avalanche stopping in its tracks a few feet above the cowering village behaves not only unnaturally but unethically. This is true for me as well. While of course I was cheering for the titular hero through the course of his internal and external struggle for identity, I can't help but feel, after finishing the book "well, that was very nice, but life is not

what if we kissed in your ex-lover's boathouse....and we were both boys.... 😳😳 haha just kidding........unless.. .....?

"Begun 1913Finished 1914Dedicated to a Happier YearEdward Morgan Forster (1879-1970) wrote Maurice (*) as a relatively young man, aged 34, at a time when old Europe was starting to fall apart. However, it was not published until 1971, a year after his death. Maurice is probably the first literary work of fiction to deal with male homosexuality in such an open, sincere fashion. At the time it was written, men in the UK could still be imprisoned for acts of gross indecency, as in the Oscar Wilde

BRO I KNOW I'M LITERALLY ALWAYS THINKING ABOUT THIS BOOK.

"Begun 1913Finished 1914Dedicated to a Happier Year" excuse me how dare you kill me mild spoiler - (view spoiler)[forster wrote this w/ a happy ending because he thought two men couldn't have a happy ending in real life so he wanted to make sure they could at least in fiction, i am sobbing and deceased (hide spoiler)]
