Commentary Toward Books Where Angels Fear to Tread
When the young English widow Lilia Herriton takes off on the grand tour and along the way marries a penniless Italian, her in-laws are far from amused. That the marriage should fail and poor Lilia die tragically are only to be expected. But that Lilia should have had a baby - and that the baby should be raised as an Italian! - are matters requiring immediate correction by Philip Herriton, his dour sister Harriet, and their well-meaning friend Miss Abbott.Rating Containing Books Where Angels Fear to Tread

WOW such a sad storyForesters do-or-die question is: Wilt thou love? Having read four of his novelsall very different in their plotthe underlying theme seems consistent in all. Is this a drawback or monotonous? Not to me as it happens to be something I often wonder myself, although my pondering tends to run along the why and how lines: Why and/or how can some people so repeatedly and insistently refuse to love? Or maybe, continue to think that being good is the same thing when it is not.I needed to let a little
This is my favorite by E.M. Forster. I gave A Room with a View three stars and A Passage to India four, but this is even better than that! A love story that I love, and it is extremely short! I don't usually enjoy short novels. It is a classic worth being called a classic. Forster captures different sorts of people and their respective ways of being. We have Harriet who is logical and straight thinking and Miss Caroline Abbott who wavers but recognizes the value of passion..as well as its

I've decided to revisit Forster. I've never really had a high opinion of his work, but I feel like that may be my problem, not his. I first read Where Angels Fear to Tread about four years ago and my original review is presented below (god I was so shit at 'reviews' back then why did none of you tell me!?)What I can glean from my second reading of Where Angels Fear to Tread is that I enjoyed it more this time. I recall being quite bored with it the first time around but this time my boredom was
I only realized half way through that E M Forster was 26 when he wrote this which is his first. If Id known that I wouldnt have read it, I have a violent prejudice against novelists under 30. Its too early to start. In other art forms its essential to be under 30 the Beatles were in their mid-20s when they did Sgt Pepper, Brian Wilson was 23 and 24 when he created Pet Sounds and Smile, Picasso was churning out brilliant realist works in his mid-teens, and not to mention Mozarts unpleasant
A novel of class and culture differences that are unable to be reconciled. Surprised at how unbearably sad this little novel was overall. The impact of adult actions on an innocent child.Whilst the characterisation of major characters wasn't as well developed as I've come to expect by this author but the setting of Italy was wonderful.It wasn't until I'd read some of the other Goodreads reviews that I learnt that it was the author's first novel.
"For fools rush in where angels fear to tread" Alexander PopeE.M. Forster wrote this, his first novel, when he was 26 years old. It starts lightly, with a comic vein, but ends in tragedy. It was an engaging read.
