About this product
Product Information
E.M. Forster is best known for his exquisite novels, but these two affecting short stories brilliantly combine the fantastical with the allegorical. In 'The Machine Stops', humanity has isolated itself beneath the ground, enmeshed in automated comforts, and in 'The Celestial Omnibus' a young boy takes a trip his parents believe impossible.

- v***k (4189)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseSorry for "rating the item" at 3*, but I have not yet read this book. eBay's new policy does not allow feedback without star rating and review for the product, so I leave 3* for any book not yet read. eBay trashed their reviews (to which I had contributed) and think this a substitute, but we now have a "system" that want an instant, uneditable review. The book arrived very quickly, is new as described, and I am more than happy with my purchase. Many thanks.

- e***0 (1128)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis is the first time I have used BookMail and I am very impressed. My order arrived on time, well packed and in excellent condition as advertised. Communication was very good indeed as was value for money. Recommended.
- d***u (198)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSuch quick delivery. Great value for money! Condition was excellent. Item was as described and even more beautiful in real life. Great quality. Fab seller Only thing was it arrived in packaging I don’t think is suitable for hardbacks and it had a rip in it. Luckily the bubble wrapped helped, but the book could have been damaged which would have been a shame as the sellers kept it in perfect condition. Would highly recommend this seller though!
