A review by captlychee
Aspects of the Novel by E.M. Forster
3.0
The points he makes are interesting and intelligent, and he manages to add in some humour into his lectures. I could only wish that his examples were more current, but of course he can't be better than his times, and predict what novels would be around today that make his points. You could see this as a reason to read some of those old classics, too, in light of what he writes about them.

He says he will probably be reading it in his dorage, and I hope that I will be, too.
