![]() ![]() ![]() Two of the other English guests – a Mr Emerson and his son, George – hear them complaining and immediately offer to exchange rooms, but instead of accepting their generous offer, the rules of Edwardian society mean that Charlotte is shocked and offended by what she considers their inappropriate behaviour. Lucy and Charlotte have just arrived at the Pension Bertolini in Florence and are disappointed to find that they have been given rooms with no view of the River Arno. Forster was one of those that I was most looking forward to trying for the first time.Ī Room with a View is the story of Lucy Honeychurch who we first meet on a trip to Italy with her cousin, Charlotte Bartlett. While I do seem to have read more books from this period than I initially thought, there are still a huge number of turn of the century authors whose work I haven’t explored yet and E.M. The idea of this is to read books published around the turn of the century – between the late 1880s and the early 1930s. This year I am participating in a Turn of the Century Salon hosted by Katherine of November’s Autumn. ![]()
