Product Details

Author: FORSTER, E M
A new selection of E. M. Forster's exquisite short stories, now in the beautifully designed Penguin English Library Series
"We created the Machine, to do our will, but we cannot make it do our will now. It has robbed us of the sense of space and of the sense of touch, it has blurred every human relation and narrowed down love to a carnal act, it has paralyzed our bodies and our wills, and now it compels us to worship it."
Like his much-loved novels, E. M. Forster's short stories are:
- Rich in irony
- Alive with sharp observations on the surprises life holds
These tales explore:
- Violent events
- Discomforting coincidences
- Other disruptive happenings
Forster’s sharp and vivid prose has the unique ability to throw both the characters' and readers' perceptions and beliefs off balance.
Selected to appeal to a new generation of readers around the world, this collection celebrates E. M. Forster's unparalleled storytelling skill. It begins with his masterful work of science fiction, The Machine Stops.
