Description:
This book questions the artistic, aesthetic, political and ethical legacy of E. M. Forster's novels. It covers Forster's literary, cinematic and musical legacies across the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and deal with many authors, such as Melville, Isherwood, Hollinghurst and Kureishi.
Review Quotes: The book edited by Elsa Cavalié and Laurent Mellet is extremely broad and varied. It unites the works of seasoned Forsterians with those of young scholars embarking on their academic careers, as well as an impressive variety of critical approaches and fields in which Forster's legacies can still be felt. Although apparently addressed primarily to Forsterian scholars, it should be, at least in part, equally interesting for scholars interested e.g. in contemporary gay fiction or adaptation studies, as well as in the writers indebted to Forster.
