First U.K. edition, first printing published by Arnold in 1971. 8vo. Publisher’s original cloth, in the original dust wrapper.

A very good copy in very good dust wrapper. Clean boards and firm binding. The dust wrapper is complete and unclipped with a little edgewear and some bubbling to the laminate.

Written in 1913–14 but suppressed during Forster’s lifetime, Maurice was published posthumously and is now recognised as a pioneering twentieth-century novel addressing same-sex love with an affirmative conclusion. First editions hold both literary and cultural significance.
