In The Obelisk, the next in our series of short stories by EM Forster, a chance encounter leads an unhappily married couple to find solace in forbidden ways. Throughout his career the novelist best known for some of the twentieth century's best loved novels including A Passage to India, Where Angels Fear to Tread and Howard's End wrote short stories which reveal much about his outlook on life. Many of his stories including The Obelisk were unpublished until after his death because of their homosexual theme and only shown to his circle of friends, among them Christopher Isherwood and T.E. Lawrence.

Read by Ruth Wilson. Abridged by Richard Hamilton. Produced by Elizabeth Allard.
