Liam Ostermann answers â€œwhat age group would you recommend this...â€� â€� Maurice Q&A

Millie asked this question about Maurice:

what age group would you recommend this book for, i know sometimes it is quite hard to put things into ages but like is there any sex/nudity or like if there is how graphic is it?

Liam Ostermann really? are you serious? how can you have nudity in a written work - mention of? If some says in a book they got read for bed is that nudity? - I meanâ€¦m´Ç°ù±ðreally? are you serious? how can you have nudity in a written work - mention of? If some says in a book they got read for bed is that nudity? - I mean you have to take you clothes off and then put on pajamas (if you wear them) so is that being naked? If someone goes for a swim and doesn't specifically mention that they put on swim suit or even they are swimming without one is that nudity to be concerned of? does it matter if they are alone? what if the character is in a culture were clothes are minimal or non existent? In general the book was written back in 1920 and although not published until 1971 it was written by one of the great masters of English prose to explore the idea of two men falling in love and living happily ever after. Sex exists, and thus nudity, in the book, but in the way it does in life - most people do it, most people get naked at some point, but it is rarely seen or described in detail.(less)
