Maurice by E.M. Forster
3.0

With this being my first E.M Forster book, I was pleasantly surprised. The writing was well balanced, feeling less bogged down with details and wandering than most books from this time period. An all round enjoyable read that whilst occasionally questionable in plot and oftentimes severely depressing, ended happily nonetheless. I felt this was a respectable portrayal that although slightly dated, I was glad to have encountered nonetheless. Luckily enough Forster had the sense to wait a few decades so that everyone can now read it unedited and in its full glory without annoyingly poor editing like other 17th and 18th century novels in the past have had to undergo.
