When Adela and her elderly companion Mrs Moore arrive in the Indian town of Chandrapore, they quickly feel trapped by its ins ular and prejudiced British community. Determined to explore the real India', they seek the guidance of the charming and mercurial Dr Aziz, a cultivated Indian Muslim. But a mysterious incident occurs while they are exploring the Marabar caves with Aziz, and the well-respected doctor soon finds himself at the centre of a scandal that rouses violent passions among both the British and their Indian subjects. A masterly portrait of a society in the grip of imperialism, A Passage to India compellingly depicts the fate of individuals caught between the great political and cultural conflicts of the modern world.
抄录书中极短的一章。其间的文字有大美。交错的人,事,和物,走笔一处,又荡开去,起伏开合,大波浪里亦有细碎的水花闪烁。 Chapter 10 THE heat had leapt forward in the last hour, the street was deserted as if a catastrophe had cleaned off humanity during the in...

Forster的失望到底有多彻底?不止是两个截然不同的民族不能相互尊重和理解,而且地理迁移和文化错置甚至像《黑暗之心》一样让人的道德变质,英国绅士淑女的风度礼仪荡然无存,一个个丑陋到极点。人和人的交流也总是磕碰纠结,要么欲言又止,要么谎话连篇,或者经常干脆不知道是谁在说话。生活就像当地的气候燥热难忍毫无乐趣可言。读这种书真烦死人。摔。
