Set in the elegant Edwardian world of Cambridge undergraduate life, this story by a master novelist introduces us to Maurice Hall when he is fourteen. We follow him through public school and Cambridge, and on into his father's firm, Hill and Hall, Stock Brokers. In a highly structured society, Maurice is a conventional young man in almost every way, "stepping into the niche that England had prepared for him": except that his is homosexual. Written during 1913 and 1914, immediately after "Howards End," and not published until 1971, " Maurice" was ahead of its time in its theme and in its affirmation that love between men can be happy. "Happiness," Forster wrote, "is its keynote. In "Maurice" I tried to create a character who was completely unlike myself or what I supposed myself to be: someone handsome, healthy, bodily attractive, mentally torpid, not a bad businessman and rather a snob. Into this mixture I dropped an ingredient that puzzles him, wakes him up, torments him and finally saves him."

读后感
先看的电影，后看的书。相比之下，书比电影好。 伊沃里的电影虽然拍得美，但节奏不对，该慢的地方没有慢下来，这也是他导演的通病。在电影中，莫瑞斯和克莱夫的性格多少都被弱化了。那时我光顾着花痴威尔比和格兰特这两个帅哥，看过书后，才感觉出电影表达的模糊和匆忙。 书中...
评分创作是对自我的一种确认。这话用在爱•摩•福斯特的小说《莫瑞斯》上或许非常合适。作为一名同性恋者，福斯特已经厌倦了仅在男女相爱的范畴里写他的小说，他需要一个刺激，更确切地说是一次袒露，来认证他对于“先天性同性爱”这一概念的理解。 虽然福斯特在小说后记中竭...
评分莱昂内尔•特里林，美国著名批评家，被称为20世界中期美国年青一代的思想导师。1970年特里林在担任哈佛大学诺顿诗歌教授时曾就西方文学中自我之真诚与真实问题做了一系列演讲，此即《诚与真》演讲集，面世后成为西方现代批评的经典文本。虽是文学批评经典，特里林的论...
评分看来我总是看些冷门书籍啊，每次我兴致勃勃地到豆瓣搜索出我看过的书，想看看评论，就发现自己又一次站在了社会边缘。 《莫瑞斯》这本书说是关于同性恋的，但作者的文化程度恐怕太高，将书写得带了些哲思，主题到最后升华到打破阶层对立的高度。 看的感觉跟当年看《麦田守望者...

无视自己的情感
评分电影里突兀的地方，小说里其实说得很平滑 A break-up just happens when one has changed and the other can't follow.
评分"more important to the man than to literature." NYT. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
评分且行且珍惜
评分英文能力还是有限，纵观情节还是感慨的，只能说假以时日，还是要细读一次的书。
