Penguin Modern Classics, Where Angels Fear to Tread by E M Forster

Penguin Modern Classics, Where Angels Fear to Tread by E M Forster

£12.00

A vintage Penguin Modern Classics edition of Where Angels Fear to Tread by E. M. Forster. First published in 1905, this novel is one of Forster’s most accomplished works, here presented in the classic Penguin format. The cover features Augustus John’s portrait of the Marchesa Casati, a striking choice that reflects the book’s themes of passion, society, and cultural clashes.

In this story, Forster takes a group of well-bred English people abroad, exposing them to situations that rouse unexpected and often violent reactions. Witty, sharp, and deeply humane, the novel is admired for its insight into character and social convention.

This copy shows its vintage character, with creases to the cover and some edge wear, along with gentle toning to the pages. A fine collectible for Penguin enthusiasts or readers who enjoy early twentieth-century English literature.
