The caves, with their haunting echoes, symbolise the inscrutability of truth, evocatively captured in the acclaimed 1984 Merchant-Ivory film adaptation, directed by David Lean and starring Judy Davis, Victor Banerjee, and Peggy Ashcroft, who won an Academy Award for her portrayal of Mrs Moore.\u003cbr\u003e\nForster’s sharp critique of imperialism and his poignant examination of the impossibility of true connection in a divided world make this a deeply thought-provoking work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789349042896\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.8 x 5.1 x 1.2 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Browser","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51229715824944,"sku":"PrakashBooks_9789349042896","price":222.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/61GOUAN1DsL.jpg?v=1774712996","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/a-passage-to-india-cuppa-raj-classics","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
