A tour of Italy takes young Lucy Honeychurch out of her predictable
life in Edwardian England and places her into a new world that even
her chaperoning spinster aunt cannot control. Encountering
everything from unlikely traveling companions to street violence,
Lucy faces the greatest challenge in understanding her own shifting
emotions toward a most unsuitable suitor. Since it first appeared
in 1908 A Room With a View has been recognized as a masterful
depiction of character and conflict. Known to many through Merchant
Ivory's lush 1985 film adaptation, which won multiple awards
including the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay, the novel provides
an even richer experience. Lucy's journey toward a fresh, true
understanding of herself and her passions make a compelling story,
leavened by both an unexpected dry humor and a belief in the power
of love.With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset
manuscript, this edition of A Room With a View is both modern and
readable.
