A Room With A View - Forster E.M..pdf - Cove Systems

emained unspoken long, she burst out with:
"You're tired of Windy Corner."
This was perfectly true. Lucy had hoped to
return to Windy Corner when she escaped
from Cecil, but she discovered that her home
existed no longer. It might exist for Freddy,
who still lived and thought straight, but not for
one who had deliberately warped the brain.
She did not acknowledge that her brain was
warped, for the brain itself must assist in that
acknowledgment, and she was disordering the
very instruments of life. She only felt, "I do not
love George; I broke off my engagement
because I did not love George; I must go to
Greece because I do not love George; it is
more important that I should look up gods in
the dictionary than that I should help my
mother; every one else is behaving very
badly." She only felt irritable and petulant, and
anxious to do what she was not expected to do,
and in this spirit she proceeded with the
conversation.
