Overview

Maurice Hall interpreta el papel del inglés convencional, pero, tras la fachada de chico modesto y generalmente conformista, hay un creciente deseo y atracción hacia los hombres. A través de Clive, a quien conocerá en Cambridge, y Alec, el guardabosque de la finca rural de Clive, Maurice experimentará un intenso y revelador despertar emocional y sexual. Una novela de pasión, valentía y desafío que condena las actitudes represivas de la sociedad británica. Una historia de amor conmovedora que es a la vez la narración de un íntimo descubrimiento erótico y político. Maurice es una novela profundamente personal que Forster terminó de escribir en 1914 pero que, por miedo a que supusiera el final de su carrera, guardó durante más de cincuenta años. Fue publicada póstumamente en 1971.

Maurice Hall plays the role of the conventional Englishman, but behind the facade of a modest and generally conformist boy, there is a growing desire and attraction to men. Through Clive, whom he will meet in Cambridge, and Alec, the gamekeeper of Clive's country estate, Maurice will experience an intense and revealing emotional and sexual awakening. A novel of passion, courage and defiance that condemns the repressive attitudes of British society. A moving love story that is both the narrative of an intimate erotic and political discovery. Maurice is a deeply personal novel that Forster finished writing in 1914 but, fearing it would spell the end of his career, he put away for more than fifty years. It was published posthumously in 1971.
