How a person acts under pressure tells a lot about what that person is like.

English and Indians‚ Forster the omniscient narrator gives us his point of view of how he experienced India to be a disheartening place at the time filled with stereotyping. I believe he wrote this novel because he was also disheartened by his own kind and their inability to connect and understand the prejudice of the Indians.
