Maurice

Maurice Hall has known he was different since he was a schoolboy, but it isn't until he goes to Cambridge and meets Clive Durham that he begins to understand why. Even though this book was written nearly 100 years ago, Maurice's journey toward accepting his sexuality and finding love is as relevant ever. And in spite of the very restrictive society of the time, he does find happiness—though not where he ever would have expected! Forster's writing is just exquisite, with brilliant dialogue, lots of humor, and tingly, heart-wrenching romance. I've reread this book about a dozen times; highly recommended for teens and adults!
