A mysterious incident at the Marabar Caves, involving Adela Quested, newly arrived from England, and Dr Aziz, an Indian doctor, leads to a drama that divides the British and Indian communities in anger, distrust, and fear. Forsters great novel brings to life all the dangers and misunderstandings of colonialism but, as Forster himself wrote, the story is about something wider than politics, about the search of the human race for a more lasting home, about the universe as embodied in the Indian earth and the Indian sky, about the horror lurking in the Marabar Caves...
E. M. Forster (1879-1970) es uno de los escritores ingleses más destacados del siglo xx. Autor ya de gran éxito en vida, vio incrementada aún más su popularidad y su fama a raíz de las adaptaciones al cine de novelas como Regreso a Howards End, Una habitación con vistas o Maurice, todas ellas publicadas por Alianza Editorial.
