This is the "Penguin English Library Edition" of "Where Angels Fear to Tread" by E. M. Forster. 'I had got an idea that everyone here spent their lives in making little sacrifices for objects they didn't care for, to please people they didn't love; that they never learned to be sincere - and, what's as bad, never learned how to enjoy themselves'. E. M. Forster's first novel is a witty comedy of manners that is tinged with tragedy. It tells the story of Lilia Herriton, who proves to be an embarrassment to her late husband's family as, in the small Tuscan town of Monteriano, she begins a relationship with a much younger Italian man - classless, uncouth and highly unsuitable. A subtle attack on decorous Edwardian values and a humanely sympathetic portrayal of the clash of two cultures, "Where Angels Fear to Tread" is also a profound exploration of character and virtue. "The Penguin English Library" contains 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century and the very first novels to the beginning of the First World War.

两出悲剧：一个女人挣脱故乡刻板的伦理道德规范的精神压抑约束，却死于对异域少年盲目而匆忙的浪漫爱情幻想；一个婴儿死于北方国度对南方国度的偏见和歧视。刻板无趣的英伦与浪漫奔放的意大利之间的文化碰撞，两种价值观的较量，最终没有胜负。 另一个女人又重蹈死去的女人的覆...
評分福斯特的第一部长篇，轻喜剧的剧情和人物，处理的却是重大的人生和文化课题，体现于其间的价值观既结实又微妙，稍有不慎就会有失去掌控，造成政治和情感“不正确”的危险。迹近完美的debut。 马爱农的翻译可圈可点，遣词造句与原文的风格丝丝入扣。Great job!
