Forster is fascinated by Indian religions and the mysterious features of India. He criticizes the Euro-centrism of the Anglo-Indians who believe in the superiority of their own Anglo-European culture to that of the colonized. It is a negative factor for westerners to understand India. 福斯特在小说中批判了英印人欧洲中心主义的观点,这些英印人认为他们自己的英欧文化比殖民地文化优越,这也是阻碍西方人了解印度的一个重要因素。
