A Room With A View depicts a young Englishwoman's adventure trying to come to grips with the conflict between her desires and society's expectations. Lucy Honeychurch is a well-bred young middle class girl on holiday in radiant Florence. She comes from a family concerned with respectability and is overprotected by a spinster named Charlotte Bartlett. Under no circumstances will Miss Bartlett allow Lucy to pursue her affection for the handsome young George Emerson--his father is far too unconventional with his modern notions about honesty and freethinking. Duty must reign. Lucy can be annoyingly naive at times but she never completely gives up her own autonomy or sense of self, even as that self is becoming more astute and self aware.
As a woman who enjoys classics, I gave this one a try. It is on the 1001 books to read before you die list and for that reason alone I finished the book. I was disappointed and for some reason, I didn’t care about the characters and I was glad when I finished the book. One more 1001 checked off my list.
