Howards End

More specifically, the plot of Forster's Howards End, ingeniously re-engineered, underpins much of the storyline of On Beauty.

更具体来说，福斯特《霍华德庄园》里的情节被巧妙地重建了，为《论美》的很多故事线索提供了支撑。

He finds unpleasant snobbery, for example, in Forster's treatment of Leonard Bast, the pathetic clerk with literary aspirations in "Howards End".

他指出，比如说《霍华德庄园》里有文学抱负、处境悲惨的小职员伦纳德·巴斯特，福斯特对他的处理令人不快、颇为势利。

He published six long novels altogether, among which Howards End is generally regarded as his masterpiece and has always been the most controversial of his novels.

他一生共写了六部长篇小说，《霍华德庄园》一直被公认为是他的代表作，而且是他的作品中最引人争议的一部。
