Audrey Lavin deftly ties Edward Morgan Forster's theory to his fiction by applying two of his critical theoretical concepts, pattern and rhythm, to his English novels. A Room with a View, Where Angels fear to Tread, The Longest Journey and Howards End. She reveals that pattern and rhythm, as unobtrusive rhetorical structures, strongly support and enhance Forster's critically admired characterizations and stories while at the same time providing cohesion and a sense of prophecy. Lavin clearly demonstrates that the enjoyment and the sense of «something more» we receive from reading Forster's novels are directly related to the calculated use of two of his most important standards of literary criticism.
