Coordinators: Lynnel Garabedian, Sandy Kessler
Continuing our fall course on the fiction of E. M. Forster, the focus during the spring term will be his novel, A Passage to India, considered by many scholars to be Forster’s masterpiece.
This compelling novel explores the conflicts between the Indian, Muslim, and English cultures in British India at the turn of the 20th century and raises many issues that pertain to today’s complex, multicultural world.
