Summary
A classic of modern fiction about colliding cultures—filled with complexity, mystery, and menace.
Hailed as one of the finest novels of the twentieth century and transformed into an Academy Award–winning film, A Passage to India hauntingly evokes India at the peak of the British colonial era, portraying the racial tension that underscores every aspect of daily life. In this setting, we meet Adela Quested and Mrs. Moor, British visitors to Chandrapore who, despite their strong ties to the colonial community there, are eager for a more "authentic" taste of India. But when their fates tangle with those of Cecil Fielding and his local friend, Dr. Aziz, at the nearby Marabar Caves, the community of Chandrapore is split wide open and everyone’s life—British and Indian alike—is forever altered.
