Description
E. M. Forster's A Passage to India is a thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of cultural and social tensions in India during the early 20th century. When two British women, Adela and Mrs. Moore, arrive in the Indian town of Chandrapore, they are met with a rigid and prejudiced British community that stifles their desire to experience the "real India". They seek guidance from Dr. Aziz, a charming and cultivated Indian Muslim, but a mysterious incident soon puts the doctor at the centre of a scandal that rouses violent passions among both the British and their Indian subjects. This Penguin Classic edition features the authoritative Abinger text, along with four of Forster's finest essays on India, a chronology of Forster's life and works, suggestions for further reading, explanatory notes, and an introduction by the distinguished critic and novelist Pankaj Mishra. For over seventy-five years, Penguin has been a leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, offering authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors.
