ASPECTS OF THE NOVEL is a unique attempt to examine the novel afresh, rejecting the traditional methods of classification by chronology or subject-matter.

Virginia Woolf

I love Forster as a writer and frankly expected more from him. His depictions of "flat" and "round" characters in fiction is priceless. The rest is forgettable.
