About This Novel

"Aspects of Novel" is a must-read classic for those engaged in novel writing, literary criticism and appreciation to understand the mysteries of the art of novels. After "A Passage to India", Forster turned his focus to lecturing and literary criticism. In 1927, he was invited to give lectures at Cambridge University, and a series of lectures became the basis of "Aspects of the Novel". The book is divided into nine chapters, covering seven aspects of the novel: story, character, plot, fantasy, prophecy, pattern, and rhythm. Forster believes that the task of the novelist is to master these aspects skillfully and achieve "everything is covered". "Aspects of the Novel" is Forster's only literary criticism monograph and is recognized as the most important classic of novel aesthetics in the 20th century.
