Product details

One of the most important, popular, and best-selling classics of English literature, this novel explores how the theft of a cheap umbrella can escalate into tragedy. Only in great literature can one truly grasp life as a coherent series of events, as in this delightful novel, described by its author as his best, and which critics have hailed for a century as Forster's "timeless masterpiece." No reader can claim to know English literature without reading it. In "Country House," a chance encounter brings together the bourgeois Willcocks and the idealistic, cultured sisters, Margaret and Helen Schlegel. While the intelligent Margaret befriends Mrs. Willcocks, earning a strange and unexpected reward, the impetuous Helen introduces them to the impoverished young clerk, Leonard, who lives on the brink of poverty.
