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.
I find this reading experience quite disturbing, for no one in this novel is adorable enough. Aziz is certainly the star of the book, his words, especially when he is disturbed, are quite sincere and sharp; however, most of the times he can make one so irri...
評分E.M.福斯特是个绅士,可是像我一样有真知灼见,他说:“大多数印度人,像大多数英国人一样,是狗屎。”你看,可不只我一个人认为人类基本上是个由SB组成的物种。2007年,我好像是在一个火车站里遛遛哒哒,偶尔坐下来卖个呆儿,我看见天下熙熙,全是SB,天下攘攘,一如既...
評分人种的观念,民族的观念,宗教的观念,性别的观念。就像人类的显性和隐性基因一样,总有一样支持或主导着人与社会不断的发生关系。 带着反思的头脑在人生的轨迹上走下去,会不断被这两类基因的冲突所警醒而发生矫正;坚持某一种观念,会不断触及这个社会的边际而产生各种各样的...
評分2016年新版,布面精装,装帧漂亮,冯涛翻译,句子靓丽,零星笔法古旧,如常用到的句式:“雅不愿……”(就是“极不愿……”的意思嘛。) 中心事件——由石窟之行而导致的诉讼官司,几乎发生在全书篇幅的正中间,此事导致强烈效果,促成纷乱,使印度人士和英方的纠葛发酵,令东...
評分今天去湾仔天地书局,前天在此买的印度之旅已经售罄。想不到百年前的殖民小说还有不少拥趸。 至此,英国殖民三部曲已经全部读完,吉姆,印度之旅,缅甸岁月,三部各千秋。 处于帝国升平,生于北印的吉卜林盛赞英国赠予殖民地的免费礼物: 被殖民,即使“一颗白人的头颅要用一百...
On this day in 1924, E. M. Forster's A Passage to India was published.
评分這本算是打發過去瞭,下兩周分彆是Mrs. Dalloway 和The Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man。而且我實在不喜歡這本最簡單的,所以我的兩篇作業就要處理後麵這兩本瞭,殺瞭我吧。
评分Beautiful ending.
