오랫동안 큰 사랑을 받아온 그의 장편 소설들과 마찬가지로, E. M. 포스터의 단편 소설들 역시 풍부한 아이러니와 삶이 품은 뜻밖의 반전들에 대한 날카로운 관찰로 가득 차 있습니다.
격렬한 사건, 당혹스러운 우연, 그리고 일상을 뒤흔드는 파격적인 사건들을 다루는 그의 예리하고 생생한 문체는 작중 인물들은 물론 독자들의 인식과 신념까지 단숨에 뒤흔들어 놓는 힘을 지니고 있습니다.
A new selection of E. M. Forster's exquisite short stories, now in the beautifully designed Penguin English Library Series
'We created the Machine, to do our will, but we cannot make it do our will now. It has robbed us of the sense of space and of the sense of touch, it has blurred every human relation and narrowed down love to a carnal act, it has paralyzed our bodies and our wills, and now it compels us to worship it.'
Like his much-loved novels, E. M. Forster's short stories are rich in irony and alive with sharp observations on the surprises life holds. Telling tales of violent events, discomforting coincidences, and other disruptive happenings, his sharp and vivid prose has the ability to throw the characters', and reader's, perceptions and beliefs off balance.
Selected to appeal to a new generation of readers around the world, this new selection of short stories in the Penguin English Library series celebrates E. M. Forster's unparalleled skill for storytelling, beginning with his masterful work of science fiction, The Machine Stops.
