A Passage to India, Forster’s last novel, explores the political and racial under-pinnings of british and Indian relations during the Raj, exposing their fragility. This edition, while addressing the tantalizing question ‘What happened to Adela in the Marabar Caves?’, also deals with the ramification of postcolonial and psychosemal readings of the novel.
