Inglise kirjaniku ja kriitiku Edward Morgan Forsteri (1879–1970) «Howards End» (1910) on kirjaniku mainekaim romaan. See on vaimukas jutustus, mille sündmused leiavad aset ühes väikeses Inglise külas. Forster kirjeldab kahe naabri vahelisi suhteid, milles põrkuvad pisut boheemlaslik kunsti- ja kirjandusmaailm ning karm realistlik ärimaailm. Ühel poolel on õed Margaret ja Helen Schlegel ning teisel Wilcoxide perekond. Õhkkonna muudavad pingeliseks nende keerukalt põimunud suhted. Heleni impulsiivne abielu Paul Wilcoxiga, Margareti soojad suhted kadunud mrs. Wilcoxiga, ning kahe perekonna muud kokkupuuted moodustavad raamatu edenedes tervikliku loo. Siin on peategelaste läbimõtlematuid tegusid, kiirelt vahelduvaid tundepuhanguid, vääritimõistmisi ning tegude paratamatuid tagajärgi – teisiti ei saakski, kui omavahel vastandatakse kaine mõistus ja südame hääl.

More About Howards End
And the goblins--they had not really been there at all? They were only the phantoms of cowardice and unbelief? One healthy human impulse would dispel them? Men like the Wilcoxes, or ex-President Roosevelt, would say yes. Beethoven knew better. The goblins really had been there. They might return--and they did. It was as if the splendour of life might boil over and waste to steam and froth. In its dissolution one heard the terrible, ominous note, and a goblin, with increased malignity, walked quietly over the universe from end to end. Panic and emptiness!... Some leave our life with tears, others with an insane frigidity; Mrs. Wilcox had taken the middle course, which only rarer natures can pursue. She had kept proportion. She had told a little of her grim secret to her friends, but not too much; she had shut up her heart--almost, but not entirely. It is thus, if there is any rule, that we ought to die--neither as victim nor as fanatic, but as the seafarer who can greet with an equal eye the deep that he is entering, and the shore that he must leave. E.M. Forster, Howards End // The crime of suicide lies rather in its disregard for the feelings of those whom we leave behind. E.M. Forster, Howards End //
IntroductionSuggestions for Further ReadingA Note on the Text--Howards EndExplanatory Notes I started out liking this. I was even thinking this was going to be my first four-star novel of the year. However, as Howards End progressed I found myself caring less and less about what was going on. By the time I was 50% of the way through I was just waiting for it to finish. I felt the exact same way about Where Angels Fear to Tread.... At this point in my reading life, I have read two other E.M. Forster novels - A Passage to India and A Room with a View. I enjoyed both of them, thought they were exceptionally well-written with wonderfully rich descriptions.I liked Howards End a bit less.It's a decent story, though not unusual. Three different families - a wealthy,...
