Publisher Description

One of E.M. Forster's most critically-acclaimed works, "A Passage to India" was chosen by Time Magazine as one of the best "All Time 100 Novels" and it won the 1924 James Tait Black Memorial Prize for fiction. Modern Library also lists the book as one of the 100 greatest works of 20th-century English literature.

The story - one of Forster's darkest tales - revolves around a trip to India by British schoolmistress Adela Quested and her companion, Mrs. Moore. After meeting with a local physician, Dr. Aziz, the two visitors travel with him on a tour of the famous Marabar Caves. While exploring a dark cave alone, Adela is forced to fend off a mysterious attacker and Dr. Aziz - who became separated from the party - is accused of assault.

A brilliant and troubling examination of privilege, racial tension and colonial rule, "A Passage to India" is often cited as Forster's masterpiece. The book has been adapted many times for the stage and screen, most famously for the Oscar-winning 1984 film directed by David Lean and starring Judy Davis, Peggy Ashcroft and Alec Guinness.

"A Passage to India" is presented here in its original and unabridged format and has been narrated by renowned audiobook narrator Sara Nichols, who also gave voice to Charlotte Brontë's "Jane Eyre," Willa Cather's "Prairie Trilogy" and the complete works of Jane Austen.
