1. The Celestial Omibus and other stories.
Contents: The Story of a Panic -- The Other Side of the Hedge -- The Celestial Omnibus -- Other Kingdom -- The Curate's Friend -- The Road from Colonus
The Celestial Omnibus and Other Stories is the title of a collection of short stories by E. M. Forster, first published in 1911. It contains stories written over the previous ten years.
A traveler steps off the road and finds himself in an alternate reality. A sullen boy accidentally summons a spirit. A man gets more than he bargained for when he buys his fiancée a plot of wooded land.These six stories deal with transformations, the truth of the imagination, and the effect of the unseen on ordinary lives. By juxtaposing the Edwardian English with pagan mythology, E.M. Forster created in this collection a work of lasting strangeness and great beauty.

2. Abinger Harvest
Abinger Harvest (1936) collects essays, reviews, poetry and a pageant play, written by E.M. Forster between the years 1903-1935. The volume is ordered not chronologically but "by subject," and Forster groups the selections under five headings: "The Present," "Books," "The Past," "The East," and "The Abinger Pageant"?the play that gives the volume its title, which has a section to itself.

3.The Longest Journey. Perhaps the most brilliant, the most dramatic, and the most passionate of the works of E.M.Forster.
Penguin Modern Classic.
