First edition, first printing of A Room With A View by E. M. Forster published by Edward Arnold, London in 1908. A very good copy free from internal inscriptions with blind stamp to the front free end paper, bound in publisher's original maroon cloth boards, some offsetting to front board, fading to the spine with slight crease, bumping to spine tips, the front hinge repaired, some ghosting to the front free end paper and rough trimmed bottom edge to text block. The story follows Lucy Honeychurch, a young Englishwoman navigating societal expectations and romantic entanglements during her travels in Italy and England. Forster's novel critiques the constraints of Edwardian society. The film (1985), part of the Merchant Ivory productions, captures the essence of the book's social satire and romantic themes, earning critical acclaim for its faithful adaptation and lush cinematography. "A Room with a View" remains a classic exploration of love and societal norms in early 20th-century England.
