I can not decide if a Passage to India or Mrs.Dalloway are my favorite novels from this class. I like that in both books that the main characters are atheists. I found a Passage to India to be easier to read than Mrs.Dalloway. I did not know that Forster was gay until seeing another student post in the discussion board about it. This is interesting to me because I have many homosexual friends and know their struggles in human rights in the present day. Perhaps his closeted homosexuality influenced him to explore aspects of people treating each other "unpleasantly". I recognize his title "A Room with a View" but I have not read it. When I get free time I think I will read that novel.
