Maurice

I watched the movie when I was a teenager. I also read A Passage to India when I was 14 but it's been a long time since I've read Forster. It's always been something I've been meaning to do. Maurice is crushed when his lover decides to go straight. Eventually Maurice finds happiness in a person of a lower station. E.M. Forster didn't get this book published when he was living. It would have destroyed him but it's one of best homosexual love stories I've read. You can tell that this all probably happened to Forster. The feeling involved hardly seems like fiction. The movie did a good job adapting the book.
