Since E. M. Forster's death in 1970, his novel Maurice and a volume
of short stories have been published for the first time. When it
was published in 1976, this book was one of the first full-length
critical introductions to Forster's fiction to include these
posthumous works. Despite the fact that most of Forster's work
deals with life before the First World War, Professor Martin sees
him as an essentially modern writer concerned with one of the most
fundamental and persistent psychological problems of our time: the
gulf between man's spiritual needs and the demands and pressures of
society. Professor Martin comments closely on the text and attempts
to assess the significance of the travel theme in Forster's writing
and the impact of his homosexuality on the content of his fiction:
he also highlights important affinities between Forster's work and
that of other early twentieth-century writers, including Joyce and
D. H. Lawrence.
