Where Angels Fear to Tread is a must-read domestic comedy that juxtaposes the confines of respectable English life with a pulsating Italian village. It shows that really living life requires more than intellectual observation and aesthetic appreciation; it requires passionate human connection and engagement. E. M. Forster raises questions about individual happiness and desire and explores how they are circumscribed and defined by the social and cultural realities of one’s life.
