About this listen

A vibrant portrait of Edwardian England, Howards End examines personal relationships and conflicting values. The Schlegel sisters, Margaret and Helen, and their brother, Tibby, place their values in civilized living, music, literature, and conversation with their friends. The Wilcoxes, Henry and his children Charles, Paul, and Evie, are concerned with the business side of life and distrust emotions and imagination.

Howards End, a charming country house in Hertfordshire that belonged to Henry Wilcox's first wife, becomes the object of an inheritance dispute between the Wilcox family and the Schlegel sisters. Through romantic entanglements, disappearing wills, and sudden tragedy, the conflict over the house emerges as a symbolic struggle for England's very future.

I could praise Forster's characters, wit and style for days yet what surprised and delighted me most was his narratorial irony. Though not the best of performances and not a very high quality recording, it is still a most marvelous novel.

The narrator's voice was most irritating. Grated on the ear from start to finish. Such a marvellous book though.

Forster's best. Ruined by the narrator.
