Publisher Description
A Room with a View is a Edwardian social comedy that explores love and prim propriety among an eccentric cast of characters assembled in an Italian pensione and in a corner of Surrey, England.
A charming young Englishwoman, Lucy Honeychurch, faints into the arms of a fellow Britisher when she witnesses a murder in a Florentine piazza. Attracted to this man, George Emerson—who is entirely unsuitable and whose father just may be a Socialist—Lucy is soon at war with the snobbery of her class and her own conflicting desires. Back in England, she is courted by a more acceptable, if stifling, suitor and soon realizes she must make a startling decision that will decide the course of her future: she is forced to choose between convention and passion.

A Room with a View
I love Edward Morgan (E.M.) Forster novels and particularly my favorite is this one. It is a timeless piece of writing which became a novel in 1908 and then in 1985 adapted into an movie which won 3 Academy Awards. If you like the novel as much as I have then it's a must you see the movie made in 1985.
