She is soon engaged to the son of a family friend. But Lucy can't shake off the intensity of her experiences in Italy and her encounter with the unconventional George Emerson who swept her up in his arms on an Italian hillside. Forster's hugely enjoyable novel takes a satirical sideswipe at polite Edwardian society and makes a plea for tolerance and inclusion.
