Where Angels Fear to Tread by E.M.ForsterWhere Angels Fear to Tread by E.M.Forster

Where Angels Fear to Tread is a comedy of manners that uses the elements of farce to demonstrate how a comic clash of cultural sensibilities can quickly turn to tragedy. Forster's acclaimed first novel displays his finely honed talent for using a tragi-comic incident to comment on human existence. In his first book, he shows a subtlety and lightness of touch, which he lost in his more "philosophical"  Howard's End and A Passage to India.

The Way We Live Now by Anthony Trollope

The Way We Live Now by Anthony TrollopeThe Way We Live Now is the essence of Trollope. If he had written no other novel, it would have ensured his immortality. He paints a picture as panoramic as his title promises, of the life of 1870s London, the loves of those drawn to and through the city, and the career of Augustus Melmotte, who is one of the Victorian novel's greatest and strangest creations, and is an achievement undimmed by the passage of time. Trollope's 'Now' might, in the 21st century, look like some distant disenchanted 'Then', but this is still the yesterday which we must understand in order to make proper sense of our today.
