Description
Howards End is a novel by E. M. Forster, first published in 1910, about social conventions, codes of conduct and relationships in turn-of-the-century England. Howards End is considered by many to be Forster's masterpieceIn Howards End, modern life is defined by property and progress in overdrive: a rush to acquire material goods accompanied by rapid technological and urban growth. This causes human beings to become disconnected from their inner lives, from each other, from nature, and from a shared sense of the past. In contrast, Margaret Schlegel, the novel's protagonist, favors the need to "only connect," to reconcile and balance different aspects of life through empathy and understanding.
