England, the 1520s. Henry VIII is on the throne but has no heir. Cardinal Wolsey is his chief advisor, charged with securing the divorce the pope refuses to grant. Into this atmosphere of distrust and need comes Thomas Cromwell, first as Wolsey's clerk and later his successor.

Story
With a compassionate realism and narrative sweep that recall the work of Charles Dickens, this magnificent novel captures all the cruelty and corruption, dignity and heroism, of India. The time is 1975. The place is an unnamed city by the sea. The government has just declared a State of Emergency, in whose upheavals four strangers - a spirited widow, a young student uprooted from his idyllic hill station, and two tailors who have fled the caste violence of their native village - will be thrust together, forced to share one cramped apartment and an uncertain future.

Beyond its titillating passages lay a glimpse into the sex lives of those who lived and died by the list's profits during the Georgian era. The Covent Garden Ladies tells the story of three unusual characters whose colourful lives were brought together by this publication.

Summary
In this rich new audio production, acclaimed British American actress Rebecca Hall brings one of E. M. Forster's most admired works to life in this classic tale of human struggle.
A charming young Englishwoman, Lucy Honeychurch, is wooed by both free-spirited George Emerson and wealthy Cecil Vyse while vacationing in Italy. Though attracted to George, Lucy becomes engaged to Cecil despite twice turning down his proposals. On hearing of the news, George confesses his love, leaving Lucy torn between marrying the more socially acceptable Cecil or George, the man she knows would bring her true happiness. Should Lucy choose social acceptance or true love?
It's both the quintessential Edwardian love story and a classic piece of social comedy, in which Forster is concerned with one of his favorite themes: the "undeveloped heart" of the English middle classes, here represented by a group of tourists and expatriates in Florence. Forster's disapproval of the era's restrictive conventions is reflected through his strong observation of character and society.
A Room with a View was ranked 79th on the Modern Library's list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. The 1985 film adaptation by James Ivory won three Oscars.
Narrator Biography
Rebecca Hall is an award-winning British-American actress with extensive credits in stage and screen, including leading roles in Christine, Professor Marston & the Wonder Women, Frost/Nixon, and Vicky Christina Barcelona. As the daughter of two theater veterans - the stage director and Royal Shakespeare Company founder Peter Hall and the opera singer Maria Ewing - Rebecca began acting from an early age, and her mastery of the craft is on full display in her nuanced performance of A Room With a View, her debut audiobook narration.

A good book let down by a poor reading
This story of the English class system, the attitude of 'society' and results on behaviour and the suppression of feelings is well worth a 'read'. For me, the second half, when the characters are back in England, is better paced than the first and the events in Italy (but that may well be a deliberate device of the author's to highlight the differences). The events however are a very good mechanism for the author to make his points and I enjoyed the book.
What was harder to cope with was the reading performance. The reader injects very little interest into the reading and at times seems to be encountering sentences without a full understanding of them. Her differentiating between the voices of the different characters is slight (particularly between the male characters) and in places disappears altogether. She doesn't give the listener any impression that she enjoyed the book. Perhaps she didn't? It may be that this reading has suffered in my estimation by comparison with Miriam Margolyes's truly outstanding interpretation of Bleak House which I finished not long before but I cannot recommend this version of a very enjoyable book.

A wonderful book
I must have read this novel five or six times. Not to mention seeing the young Helena Bonham Carter sashay through the excellent screen adaptation several times. It’s a story I love and decided to listen to it for the first time, reaffirming a view that it gives up new layers of meaning and Bon mots every time. I confess I wasn’t entirely convinced about the narrator - but I genuinely think that I am so familiar with the text that I was expecting to hear the voices I had already made in my imagination. But it was well done, immensely enjoyable and certainly my favourite Forester. If you’ve only seen the movie, get this and peel back the layers.

What a disappointment
I was really looking forward to listening to this book BUT couldn't get any further than the first couple of chapters. The narrator's interpretation of the characters voices is just dreadful.
This is a really good story spoilt. and it is capable of putting anyone of E M Foster for life.

Did not enjoy the reading.
I really enjoy Rebecca Hall's films...she is a really good actress, but this reading irritated me to the extent that I gave up on it quite early in the story. I thought the tone used by the reader was at odds with my expectations....too modern, perhaps?
I was disappointed but I do think Rebecca Hall could be great reading a contemporary novel.

A nice story - nothing special though
A nice story of conflict between our own identity and passions, and what we think we are supposed to be, based on what others want us to be.
Also painted a picture of a type of lifestyle during the period it was set, which was interesting.

Classic Edwardian romance
I remember seeing the Merchant Ivory adaptation of Room with a View at an arthouse cinema in Leeds in the 1980s. I have not seen it since or read the book until now and was surprised quite how much stayed with me. This is the story of travels to Florence which were popular with the Edwardian English and of class and status. The wonderfully named Lucy Honeychurch and her cousin chaperone Charlotte meet uncouth and lower ranking Mr Emmerson and his son George in their boarding house who offers to change rooms so that Miss Lucy can have a "room with a view". Back in Surrey (naturally) their paths meet again and by now Lucy is engaged to the pompous Cecil and her affections are torn when she sees George once more. On one level this could be seen as proto Mills and Boon slush and I suspect that this may well have been the blueprint for countless writers of historical romance fiction. Thankfully, the scene in which there is naked cavorting around a lake that features in film does not appear in the book and I suspect Mr Merchant and Mr Ivory may have been wanting to add titivation but frankly, it does not need this and this is undoubtedly a classic.

A lovely performance, and a wonderful story
Ms Hall provides the best audiobook performance I’ve heard in several years, with nuance and depth and energy and eager enthusiasm. Her male voices are a treat, delicious in the ways they are differentiated, via accent and pacing and affected tics, rather than through some attempted mimicry. Her female voices, similarly, are easily identifiable and depict the age and station of each character, admirably. I loved the full story, which provided insights into the characters I discovered were lacking in the popular film version.

Absolutely Brilliant
To disentangle my love for this book with my adoration of the 1985 movie, is nigh on impossible. I don't truly recall which I experienced first, but there is no way for a reread (certainly) to not feature the actors from the film as the same characters in the book in my mind.
Forster, who dealt heavily in writing about the division of classes in society, which is perhaps more starkly demonstrated in Howards End, lays his ideas down with a gentler and more personal hand. Maybe even a less jaded hand.
Miss Lucy Honeychurch, our protagonist, is filled to the brim with flustered versions of supposed-to's...that is, to say...She feels an obligation to the way one is supposed to behave, and be, and do, and live—as well as marry. But as she explores herself within this novel, she gets a firmer grasp on who she is, who she actually wants to be, and what her own ideals really are. Perhaps especially after coming face-to-face with the living embodiment of her ideals and modern thoughts in a father and son duo, the elder and younger Mr. Emersons. Or rather, they are at least two people whose own behavior and philosophies force her to question her own.
As with Howards End, Forster has created a similar little family vignette with no father barring the way and a kooky, rudderless younger brother (growing up without a male role model to constrain him into the typical masculine role of the day). I can't help but think that while there is undoubtedly a lot of Forster in his leading ladies (Miss Honeychurch here and Misses Schlegels in Howards End), I think there is a great deal of something known and familiar to Forster in the two younger brothers—Freddy Honeychurch and Tibby Schlegel. For a critique on early 20th century English society, I found it surprisingly filled with hope, beauty, and romance. There's a late-coming-of-age go at Lucy piecing together her own desires for life, and breaking free from the chains of society.
Audiobook, the Rebecca Hall version, A Room with a View: Rebecca Hall's voice and acting ability were brilliant for this. Her accents, both her own and any affected, as well as her interpretations of the characters, cleanly and neatly cemented this entanglement with the 1985 movie version in my mind. She brought this to life in such a way that felt truest to the tone and delivery in which the book was intended. I'd love to hear more from her.

Short and Sweet
Forster packs an impressive amount of emotion and character development into his story. It was a refreshing, quick read that I found hard to put down, I’d rank this right up there with other novels of early 20th century that I’ve read. A thought provoking read and a wonderful listen. Rebecca Hall was perfect for the roll, all her characters hit the mark. Highly recommended.

Superb rendition of a View into Love
E M Foster - a master at protrayal of characters in the throes of love with subtlety and psycological depth continues to bewitch. Beautifully read, a great listen.

Absolutely lovely
Pitch-perfect performance by Rebecca Hall of E. M. Forster’s classic. I enjoyed every minute.

A story so nice, I listened twice
Loved this performance by Rebecca Hall. So very well done! And what a great story. After finishing the first listen, I turned around and listened again. It was even better the second time. And it's not such a long book, as far as British classics go. Easy to follow, quick and light but also meaningful and profound.
