FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The new paperback series- Penguin English LibraryThe Penguin English Library Edition of Where Angels Fear to Tread by E. M. ForsterI had got an idea that everyone here spent their lives in making little sacrifices for objects they didnt care for, to please people they didnt love; that they never learned to be sincere - and, whats as bad, never learned how to enjoy themselvesE. M. Forsters first novel is a witty comedy of manners that is tinged with tragedy. It tells the story of Lilia Herriton, who proves to be an embarrassment to her late husbands family as, in the small Tuscan town of Monteriano, she begins a relationship with a much younger Italian man - classless, uncouth and highly unsuitable. A subtle attack on decorous Edwardian values and a humanely sympathetic portrayal of the clash of two cultures, Where Angels Fear to Tread is also a profound exploration of character and virtue.The Penguin English Library - 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century and the very first novels to the beginning of the First World War.
