A Passage to India / Forster, E.M 1936  Book
Forster, E.M Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Penguin Group, 1936.
Description 287pGreen Spine
Summary/Abstract E. M. Forster's 1924 masterpiece, A Passage to India, is a novel that tackles the thorny notions of preconceptions and misconceptions through characters’ desire to overcome the barrier that divides East and West in colonial India. Here we see the limits of liberal tolerance, good intentions, and good will as we try to sort through the common problems that exist between two very different cultures. But Forster’s India is a country where the English and Indians stare at each other across a cultural divide and a history of imbalanced power relations, mutual suspicion, and ill will. A fresh reader must wonder whether connection is possible at all.
