<p>A Passage to India, E.M. Forsters masterpiece, which has remained consistently popular and widely studied in India for eight decades, has also emerged as the most controversial of all his works, to have received both enthusiastic applause and corrosive criticism across geographical and cultural frontierssince its first publication till datefor varied reasons. The available corpus of criticism on the novel, quite voluminous and often contrapuntal, can reasonably baffle and intrigue the young students. While keeping in view the need of the general students of our universities the present study aims at a lucid analysis and in-depth study of the book with reference to its various facets. The author who has been teaching the book to university students for nearly three decades has penetrated the text with sensitive insight and scholarly command from the varied angles of the genesis, historical setting, title, themes, structure, characters, narrative technique including symbol, rhythm, language, interterxtual echoes, and imperial and postcolonial discourses, in addition to providing an Introduction, a Story-outline, and a detailed Critical summary of the entire text, along with a select Bibliography and sample questions. The study will be immensely useful to students, scholars and teachers in the area.</p>
