Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"A Passage to India" by E. M. Forster is a novel published in 1924 set against the British Raj and Indian independence movement.

The ensuing trial ignites racial tensions between Indians and British colonials, testing friendships across cultural divides and revealing the deep prejudices of the era.
