Adela Quested y su anciana acompañante, la Sra. Moore, llegan a la ciudad india de Chandrapore y rápidamente se sienten atrapadas por su comunidad 'anglo-india' insular y prejuiciosa. Decididas a escapar del enclave inglés parroquial y explorar la 'verdadera India', buscan la guía del encantador y mercurial Dr. Aziz, un musulmán indio cultivado. Pero ocurre un incidente misterioso mientras exploran las cuevas de Marabar con Aziz, y el respetado médico pronto se encuentra en el centro de un escándalo que despierta violentas pasiones tanto entre los británicos como entre sus súbditos indios. Un retrato magistral de una sociedad en las garras del imperialismo, A Passage to India representa de manera convincente el destino de las personas atrapadas entre los grandes conflictos políticos y culturales del mundo moderno.
Edward Morgan Forster was an English author. He is best known for his novels, particularly A Room with a View (1908), Howards End (1910) and A Passage to India (1924). He also wrote numerous short stories, essays, speeches and broadcasts, as well as biographies and pageant plays. His short story "The Machine Stops" (1909) is often viewed as the beginning of technological dystopian fiction. He also co-authored the libretto to Benjamin Britten's opera Billy Budd (1951). Many of his novels examine class differences and hypocrisy. His views as a humanist are at the heart of his work.
