A Collision of Cultures

The Passage to India transported me to India as I read. It is a collision of cultures and a clash of religions. The author paints a picture of colonial India and the behavior of the British, which is fascinating. I felt despair on behalf of the main character and intense frustration and dislike of the ruling British. Failure to understand the Indian way of life was the key to hostility between the ruling and the ruled.

Great book!

Getting a glimpse into the society and life of that era.
