Howards End
Richard Fane
"Howards End" by E. M. Forster is a novel written during the early 20th century. The story revolves around the complexities of social class, connections between people, and the evolving landscape of English society. The central characters include sisters Margaret and Helen Schlegel, who are intellectual and progressive, and the Wilcox family, representing the affluent and traditional capitalist class. The opening of the novel introduces Helen's correspondence with her sister, Margaret, detailing her visit to Howards End. Helen expresses her delight at the charm of the house and its idyllic surroundings, noting her interactions with the Wilcox family, particularly Mrs. Wilcox, who embodies a sense of nurturing and rootedness. Helen's letters blend whimsical observations about the family with deeper reflections on social dynamics, class issues, and female identity. Throughout these early chapters, we see Helen's fascination with the Wilcoxes grow, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of love, class tensions, and the pursuit of connection amidst societal change.
