Probably shouldn't have but I've picked up a 1970s collected edition of E.M Foster's early works (Howard's End, Room wiith a View, A Passage to India, Where Angel's Fear to Tread, The Longest Journey). I only went in looking for a copy of Howard's End because I couldn't find my old copy, which knowing me I probably just gave away without a thought to get it back.

Nice. ๐Ÿ‘ A Passage to India is such a prescient book. ( Fielding is the modern 20th C international person )
