The Longest Journey is a bildungsroman by E. M. Forster, first published in 1907. It is the second of Forster's six published novels, following Where Angels Fear to Tread (1905) and preceding A Room with a View (1908) and Howards End (1910). It has a reputation for being the least known of Forster's novels, but was also the author's personal favourite and one of his most autobiographical. It is the only one of Forster's novels not to have received a film or television adaptation.

Forster's literary career is assessed in relation to works that mark its phases: his suburban novels, the Indian novel, the BBC talks, and first and last, his short fiction. This study traces evidences of his keen awareness of political and social undercurrents as discovered in the works: the importance of personal relations, culture as a precious heritage, and the creative artist as definer of cultural values and encourager of those who should preserve them.

In The Study Of E.M. Forster S Enig¬Matic Fiction, The Author Has Attempted A Profile Of This Modern Janus, The Essence Of Whose Personality Inheres In The Subtlety Of The Hints He Drops And The Glimpses He Affords Into The Dark Recesses Of The Minds Involved In A Mysterious Universe. The Elusiveness Of His Work Produces An Art Which, Though Concrete And Tangi¬Ble, Is Punctuated By Reticences, Inter¬Spersed With Hesitations, Qualifications And Suggestions, Pregnant With Deep Meanings Like The Melodious Stirrings Of Music. The Book Is Primarily Based On The Author S Doctoral Dissertation, Ethics And Aesthetics In The Novels Of E.M. Forster. According To Dr. Singh, The Categories In Which Forster Ranges People Are Primarily Ethical; The Pattern He Imposes On Experience Is The Pattern Of His Ethical Vision. This Vision Is Fresh And Independent Affair, Its Tone Is Inquiring, Not Dogmatic. His Analysis Shows That The Aesthetic Pleasure That Forster S Novels Communicate Depends Mainly On His Gifts Of Characterization, His Mastery Of Dialogue, His Delicately Poised Irony, His Flexible Prose, And His Ingenuity In Unfolding Themes So That Each Novel Has A Meaning That Transcends The Sum Of Its Parts. The Book Enables Us To Understand E.M. Forster By Placing Him In Relation To The Thoughts Of Some Of The Leading Thinkers Of 20Th Century And The Socio¬Political Milieu Its Daring Adventures, Its Narrow Prejudices, Its Peculiar Social Norms Which Determined The Scope Of His Work. His Approach Is Refreshingly Original And He Makes Quite Perceptive Comments On The Comple¬Xity Of Forster S Art In Comparison With Henry James, D.H. Lawrence, Joseph Conrad, George Orwell And Andre Gide As Also On His Craftsmanship As A Novelist.

A renaissance of E. M. Forster is certainly under way. The success of the many films based upon his novels demonstrates Forster’s appeal to the modern audience and his aptitude for entertaining a mass quantity of readers over several decades. Four of his best novels are brought together here in one volume: Where Angels Fear to Tread The Longest Journey A Room with a View Howards End “E. M. Forster’s characters are the most lifelike we have had since Jane Austen laid down the pen.”—Virgina Woolf “[Forster] does not hesitate to kill off a character right after introducing him with a careful description which leads us to anticipate a larger role.”—Louis Auchincloss “The shapeliness of his prose and his plotting still satisfies. The width remains piercing and seamlessly painless.”—the New York Times “There is no questioning or resisting the charm of Mr. Forster. The Longest Journey steadily attains beauty.”—Saturday Review Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction—novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.
