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.

一位看起來並不那麼有名的作傢,EM福斯特 距作者生活的時代(大概195x年)已經過去半個多世紀,但是看到他寫下的,靈魂仍會震顫,並因為這些美麗的文字和作者的哲學思考而心馳神往。 我也一直在這枯燥索然的生活中掙紮,時而懷疑生而為何,痛感生之如蜉蝣,這一點我的摯友皆知...
評分《印度之行》不愧於福斯特最有傳世影響的小說,在保留傳統式的情節走嚮敘述和外部世界的宏觀描寫的同時,角色內心世界描寫的分量大大加重,並大量地輔之以象徵手法。因此有不少人把《印度之行》視為現代主義和現實小說之間的過渡品。其實無論什麼殖民政治文學還是什麼前現...
評分 評分India calls "Come" through her hundred mouths, through objects ridiculous and august. But What does she want? The ruling class--Anglo-Indians had never truly understood her. Or, did it ever care to ? Even Indians cannot represent India. Then, what is India....

不錯
評分Forster的失望到底有多徹底?不止是兩個截然不同的民族不能相互尊重和理解,而且地理遷移和文化錯置甚至像《黑暗之心》一樣讓人的道德變質,英國紳士淑女的風度禮儀蕩然無存,一個個醜陋到極點。人和人的交流也總是磕碰糾結,要麼欲言又止,要麼謊話連篇,或者經常乾脆不知道是誰在說話。生活就像當地的氣候燥熱難忍毫無樂趣可言。讀這種書真煩死人。摔。
評分Beautiful ending.
評分Centuries of carnal embracement, yet man is no near understanding man.
評分Cultural conflicts and communication difficulties. Chaos of cultures, religions, beliefs, politics, races, education backgrounds, social ranks, etc. Sceptical and ambiguous.
