Is Lucy fully realized in A Room with a View?

Good question. Mrs Moore (from A Passage to India) is generally better regarded.

Hardy is under-appreciated. Way better than Dickins...

I absolutely loved the narrator in Rush’s _Mating_ when I was a twenty-something grad student. I’ve been meaning to re-read it to see if that still holds up.

Agree re Hardy. Also, Henry James, Shakespeare, and (albeit in a single novel) Choderlos de Laclos ("Les Liaisons Dangereuses").

Martin Amis wrote a novel in a female voice, as did Jay McInerney. That is a literary rarity.

Marion Halcombe greatly appealed to his male readers.
