The 1930s -- The War Years: 1939-1945 -- The Post-War Years.

The correspondence between E. M. Forster and Christopher Isherwood is a fascinating record ofthe professional and personal lives of two major British writers from the 1930s to the 1960s. The letters of the 1930s reveal how Forster and Isherwood each came to grips with the rise offascism in Europe and threat of war as both writers and simply human beings caught in the midst of a world on the brink of disaster. These letters also tell two parallel but very different stories of love and devotion between each writer and his respective male partner. The correspondence during the war years juxtapose the strikingly different worlds in which Forster and Isherwood were living: the London areaduring the Blitz and the southern California community of exiled writers, respectively. In the post-war letters the two friends continue their ongoing conversation to find a suitable ending for Forster's groundbreaking but yet unpublished novel, Maurice. This complete collection of very readableletters, thoroughly annotated and with an informative introduction, will be of great interest for literary scholars and general readers.
