Eager to know the "real" India, a group of English tourists develops a friendship with the cultivated Dr. Aziz. The veneer of trust and mutual affection is shattered during a trip to the Marabar caves, when one of the women accuses Dr. Aziz of assault. Arguably Forster's greatest novel, A Passage to India paints a troubling portrait of colonialism at its worst and, in the breach between Aziz and his English "friends," foreshadows the end of British rule in India.

評分抄錄書中極短的一章。其間的文字有大美。交錯的人,事,和物,走筆一處,又蕩開去,起伏開閤,大波浪裏亦有細碎的水花閃爍。 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...
評分對於大英帝國的殖民地的觀點來說,一類顯然是吉蔔林,認為這是大英帝國的光榮,給殖民地帶來瞭文明(《吉姆》);另一類應該就是奧威爾(《緬甸歲月》)。那麼究竟是怎麼樣呢?要是以前我可能會說奧威爾的更“正確”,因為我畢竟是個半殖民地的後代。但看完此書後我覺得也...
