Howards End

The story of a house and two sisters, Howards End is also a subtle meditation on national, sexual and social identities. If the contrasting temperaments of the heroines often recall Sense and Sensibility, the comparison with Jane Austen is fully justified by the power of Forster’s irony and the brilliance of his wit.

Povestea unei case si a doua surori, Howards End este, de asemenea, o meditatie subtila asupra identitatilor nationale, sexuale si sociale. Daca temperamentele contrastante ale eroinelor amintesc adesea de Simt si Sensibilitate, comparatia cu Jane Austen este pe deplin justificata de puterea ironiei lui Forster si de stralucirea inteligentei sale.
