I loved the movie and really liked the book as well. It's tragic and queer but hopeful. Definitely glad I read it.
I am just so happy Forster gave Maurice the happy ending he deserved.

I had a hard time getting into the book because I really dislike Maurice. I ended up enjoying the story but Maurice remained an irritating character.

Pas fan du style mais ça se lit très bien. Assez interrogé quant au traitement de la classe, qui représente ici un enjeu central (si ce n’est le seul).
Ce qui choquait alors se lit ajd comme du mélo ouin ouin dilué, mais imo c’est plutôt une excellente nouvelle si ce roman nous semble désormais daté.

I don’t love the characters, but the story gets me every time!
I absolutely flew through the book- I hadn’t read it before (but had seen the movie so long ago)
It broke my heart and then glued it back together differently.
I can see why it wasn’t published until after the author died. And I can see why it remains a classic queer story

Thực ra mình rất suy nghĩ về việc cho cuốn này 3 hay 4 sao, vì một lần nữa, giọng văn này không hợp với mình, nhưng Maurice thực sự rất hay. Mình nghĩ lý do lớn nhất khiến mình không thể tận hưởng cuốn này hoàn toàn là vì nó có quá nhiều cung bậc cảm xúc, nhân vật thực sự rất flawed và khiến mình phải xem xét lại quan điểm của bản thân về họ khá nhiều. Nhưng mà nghĩ kĩ thì điều đó khiến cho Maurice rất "thật", bởi vì thực tế thì đâu có gì là tuyệt đối đâu nhỉ. Cuốn sách này thực sự rất đẹp, đẹp đau lòng, xin tự cảm ơn bản thân vì đã không dnf nó :))))
