A Room with a View portrays the issues that the adventurous young Lucy Honeychurch faces as she journeys to Florence and Rome with her stuffy older cousin Charlotte as chaperone. An upper middle class Englishwoman, her strong independent streak leads her into situations that challenge the strict codes of conduct and social expectations in the culture of Edwardian England. It is a novel of binary opposites. Set in both Italy and England, we see the contrast between the warm, colorful, sensual Italy with the chilly, dark English culture. Conservative characters are static, stuck in rooms, while dynamic characters are modern, progressive, open to the winds of change. It is a romantic and optimistic work: as Lucy moves away from her protected life she eventually charts her own course with the partner she loves.

A Room with a View was adapted for the theatre in 1975 and made into an award-winning film by the team of Merchant-Ivory in 1985. The Modern Library ranks A Room with a View 79th on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century.
