  • Description
    First major theatrical adaptation of EM Forster's classic novel for a contemporary audience Before deciding whether to marry Chandrapore's local magistrate, Adela Quested wants to discover the "real India" for herself. Newly arrived from England, she agrees to see the Marabar Caves with the charming Dr Aziz. Through this one harmless event Forster exposes the absurdity, hysteria and depth of cultural ignorance that existed in British India in the twenties. E.M. Forster's classic novel is here adapted in this highly theatrical, humorous and faithful version for the stage by the author of BENT, Martin Sherman. Published to tie in with a major new production of A PASSAGE TO INDIA produced by Shared Experience Theatre company.

    Author Info
    • E.M. Forster was an English novelist, short story writer, essayist and librettist. His work tended to examine class difference and hypocrisy in the early twentieth-century British society. His views as a humanist are at the heart of his work, which often depicts the pursuit of personal connections in spite of the restrictions of contemporary society. An adaption for the stage by Martin Sherman of Forster's A Passage to India was published in 2002.

    Unsatisfactory quality.

    I bought this book from flipkart and as usual got it on time. Although the book is priced very less, still the print and the paper quality is too bad. 316 pages is too long to be read in bad paper quality. Try buying other editions of the book like penguin.

    English Language it is...

    The language of this work is by far the best I've come across.
    Amazing!
    E M Forster is undoubtedly one of the most eloquent writers. The character build-up is slow, steady and realistic.
    Gives a very close picture of the Indian society that existed during the British Raj and remnants of which can still be found in us Indians - not only our buildings, out attitude, our tastes and our demeanor in general

    Print quality very bad

    I bought this book. Print quality of book is very bad. Lot of spelling mistakes and lot of misprinting is there. It seems that it is a photocopied version of a book. It's the worst book I have ever purchased. Flipkart should remove such publishers from their list.

    Why is it famous? I fail to understand.

    i picked it up... went on for some 70-100 pages, then put it down. After a few month I again drove in, and went to around 150. but again ... it was too much of an effort.
    The language is ... different. Often i got lost in the conversation, as to who is speaking what. Then there were some irrelevant meandirings, which were neither philosophical nor complete. Some sentences and words i did not quite get, and the descriptions were plainly boring.
    I think i have put it down for good.
