Description
 
Lionel Trilling considered The Longest Journey perhaps the most brilliant, the most dramatic, and the most passionate of E.M. Forsters' works.

Published in 1907, it also was the author's favorite among his novels.

In this, his second novel, Forster exposes the failings of his respectable English characters without removing them from their native surroundings.

The novels revolves around Rickie Elliot, a congenitally lame young man with a tragic past.

Raised in a stifling English suburb, Rickie is sent to Cambridge to achieve greatness and there encounters the temptations of an impractical life -- one of philosophical questions, wild hopes and imaginative flights.

His marriage to the conventional and pragmatic Agnes Pembroke, whom he mistakenly believes is his great passion, and his subsequent move to Sawston to live and teach, provide the background for this, the story of Rickie's true enlightenment.

CONDITION:Softcover, as new but for light wear to edges from shelving! There a light splash stain to page edges.
