About this ebook

Two literary sisters, a family of hard-headed businessmen, a clerk who reads to better himself, and a house in Hertfordshire that will go to whoever the dead woman meant it for. Forster's father died when he was a baby and a great-aunt's legacy paid for the freedom he writes about; only connect, the book says, and then it spends four hundred pages showing exactly how much that costs. Fifty-nine plates by painters from Constable to Orpen trace the English house and garden, the cricket match and the field marshal, the whole settled order Forster's novel puts on trial.
