Description
E. M. Forster is not prolific, but his work is unique. Forster's forte is the exploration of human nature as illustrated through human interaction, so his stories primarily focus on relationships within a particular social construct -- namely the wealthy English, often transplanted to another country (e.g., Italy), and their family and societal dynamics. His meticulous characterization is accomplished through dialogue; each character has a distinctive voice, conveyed through gentle prose, with the occasional frisson of dry wit.
