Aspects of the Novel
1927 book by E. M. Forster
Aspects of the Novel is a book based on a series of lectures delivered by E. M. Forster at Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1927, in which he discusses the English language novel. By using examples from classic texts, he highlights what he sees as the seven universal aspects of the novel, which he defined as: story, characters, plot, fantasy, prophecy, pattern, and rhythm.[1]
