Publisher's Synopsis
The Curate's Friend; The Road From Colonus is a collection of two novellas written by E.M. Forster. The first novella, The Curate's Friend, tells the story of a young curate who becomes friends with an unconventional and free-spirited woman. As their friendship deepens, the curate must confront his own feelings and beliefs about love and marriage. The second novella, The Road From Colonus, follows an elderly Greek scholar as he embarks on a journey to find the tomb of a famous philosopher. Along the way, he reflects on his own life and the meaning of wisdom and knowledge. Both novellas explore themes of love, friendship, and the search for meaning in life. Forster's elegant prose and insightful observations make this book a timeless classic of English literature.THIS 42 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The Celestial Omnibus and other Stories by E.
