A classic, one of my faves. Lucy Honeychurch discovers herself, love and della Robbia on a trip to Italy. Forster's gently satiric depiction of English country ilfe and manners and his observations on tourists are very satisfying. And the romance is sweet, who hasn't felt like Lucy - confused and afraid to take the leap?
