BkloverWhat a horrible bunch of people. Mrs Moore (who isn‘t so bad) shouldn‘t have told her son about Aziz.8mo
AnnR@Bklover - Exactly! Surely Mrs. Moore's son will blab to other people in his 'peer' group about Dr. Aziz, especially Mr. Callendar which will cause all sorts of problems.8mo
AnnRChap 3: I highlighted this because it was so disturbing. Mrs. Callendar is just awful!
“—I was a nurse in a Native State. One‘s only hope was to hold sternly aloof.” “Even from one‘s patients?” “Why, the kindest thing one can do to a native is to let him die,” said Mrs. Callendar. “How if he went to heaven?” asked Mrs. Moore, with a gentle but crooked smile. “He can go where he likes as long as he doesn‘t come near me. They give me the creeps.”8mo
BarkingMadRead@AnnR I hated that passage, so awful! What a horrible human!8mo
jenniferw88@mcctrish@AnnR the 'I can't explain it' is meant to be interpreted as 'you've just arrived in India, once you settle in you'll understand my position better'. Still not nice though!8mo
