E. M. Forster&rsquo;s beloved Italian novels, now in a single hardcover volume.<br><br>Forster&rsquo;s most memorably romantic exploration of the liberating effects of Italy on the English, <i>A Room with a View</i> follows the carefully chaperoned Lucy Honeychurch to Florence. There she meets the unconventional George Emerson and finds herself inspired by his refreshingly free spirit&mdash; which puts her in mind of &ldquo;a room with a view&rdquo;&mdash;to escape the claustrophobic snobbery of her guardians back in England. The wicked tragicomedy <i>Where Angels Fear to Tread</i> chronicles a young English widow&rsquo;s trip to Italy and its messy aftermath. When Lilia Herriton impulsively marries a penniless Italian and then dies in childbirth, her first husband&rsquo;s family sets out to rescue the child from his &ldquo;uncivilized&rdquo; surroundings. But in ways that they can&rsquo;t possibly imagine, their narrow preconceptions will be upended by the rich and varied charms of Forster&rsquo;s cherished Italy.
