E.M. Forster's Maurice's Story Is Told

[princealbertofb]

Written in 1913, in an Edwardian era that criminalised homosexual acts between two men, author Edward Morgan Forster wrote this novel of requited and unrequited love between two men, which was never printed until the author had died. The book gave way to a James Ivory film in 1987 which featured Hugh Grant, Rupert Graves and James Wilby.





Now is the time to catch up with this novel's story on BBC Radio Three's Literary Pursuits.

Yeah. It's so cute that you keep trying.

I believe I first watched this at around 3 AM or so on cable during my teen years. I thought it made me very sophisticated.

I don't think I'd be able to sit through it today.
