Howards End intertwines the lives of three families in early 20th century England. The idealistic and intellectual Schlegel siblings, Margaret, Tibby and Helen, are deeply involved with modern art and social progress. The Wilcoxes are well-to-do capitalists with interests in the colonies; the matriarch, Ruth, owns a country home known as Howards End. The struggling clerk Leonard Bast and his wife Jacky, a “fallen woman”, eke out a lower class living. The events of the complex plot places the characters in one another’s lives in surprising and challenging ways. Alliances are formed, mistakes made, confidences betrayed, and reality clashes repeatedly with the dictates of social convention and codes of behavior.
Published in 1910, Howards End is considered Forster’s masterpiece by many. Emma Thompson won an Academy Award for her portrayal of Margaret Schlegel in the 1992 Merchant-Ivory film. The Modern Library places it 38th on its list of the best English-language novels of the 20th century.
