Set in the elegant Edwardian world of Cambridge undergraduate life, this story by a master novelist introduces us to Maurice Hall when he is fourteen. We follow him through public school and Cambridge, and on into his father's firm, Hill and Hall, Stock Brokers. In a highly structured society, Maurice is a conventional young man in almost every way, "stepping into the niche that England had prepared for him": except that his is homosexual. Written during 1913 and 1914, immediately after "Howards End," and not published until 1971, " Maurice" was ahead of its time in its theme and in its affirmation that love between men can be happy. "Happiness," Forster wrote, "is its keynote. In "Maurice" I tried to create a character who was completely unlike myself or what I supposed myself to be: someone handsome, healthy, bodily attractive, mentally torpid, not a bad businessman and rather a snob. Into this mixture I dropped an ingredient that puzzles him, wakes him up, torments him and finally saves him."

評分同誌題材的影視和文學這些年始終方興未艾。其中很多,我都不甚喜歡。雖然不可否認這些作品或多或少為社會對原本難以啓齒的話題提供些許鬆弛的空間,讓普羅大眾(或許是俯視的態度,或許是同情的態度,或許是好奇的態度)知道“哦,其實還有這麼一個群體。” 《莫瑞斯》是我這...

評分脫稿於1914年的《莫瑞斯》,被E·M·福斯特私藏瞭五十多年直到作者本人去世後纔得以齣版,他不指望依靠這本小說來功成名就,就像一場浪漫的亡命之旅,僅獻給艱難與原始的愛。 《莫瑞斯》對於福斯特生前的大部分歲月來說是邪惡的,他竟然耗費一本書的長度去稱頌同性之愛,這不該...
