Forster, 1971, catalogue numbers 179, 27, N/A, 71] (4) A fascinating group offering a microcosm of Forster's reading from his Victorian childhood to his literary pomp as, among other things, an advocate of the Russian canon as it was first becoming widely available in English translation. As a boy, Forster lived with his mother at Rooksnest in Hertfordshire, ‘a modestly beautiful house which was the model for Howards End’ (ODNB), where the family were tenants of the Lieutenant-Colonel Robert Hindley Wilkinson and his wife Caroline of nearby Chesfield Park. Forster discussed Maurice Baring's An Outline of Russian Literature in a 1941 BBC radio broadcast titled ‘Some Books: The Brothers Karamazov and Bhakti': ‘I have just been reading a short convenient handbook … Russian Literature by Maurice Baring, in the Home University Library. It is not a new book, and it is in no sense up to date. (There is scarcely anything about Gorki in it, and nothing about the development of literature under the Soviet.) So I recommend it with reservation in case you get it and are disappointed. But I do recommend, for it will give you a background against which to set your reading of Russian novels’ (Heath, The Creator as Critic and Other Writings by E.M. Forster, p. 255). A copy of the W. Heffer & Sons catalogue This Book Belongs to E. M. Forster is included with the lot.
