Letter F


Finally! I finished Forster's novel, A Passage to India. It took about three months which is long for me. I read some other reviews on the book and it seemed to have a generally positive response.

I just couldn't get into it though. The subject matter was interesting, a clash between English and Indian, but beyond that I found no redeeming factors. The story felt flat, unchanging, even during the (semi) climactic courtroom scene. And for whatever reason I got a very pretentious attitude from the narrator.

Overall, I didn't enjoy this book, but could see the reasons it became a classic.

Now, on to Letter G!
