I found this book incredible. Forster's is a master at dialogue, which makes this book very fun to read. The book is also rich in themes, metaphors and symbols. It's about reconciling the opposites in our lives. Different classes, temperaments, sexes, materialism vs idealism etc. It also describes a beautiful sisterly bond that really tugged at my heartstrings.
