A wonderful and coherent selection from the writings of a great author.
This collection of VS Naipaul's essays, the first of two volumes, showcases a lifetime of intelligent and profoundly enjoyable writing. It features pieces taken from his earlier books - 'The Overcrowded Barracoon', 'The Return Of Eva Peron' and 'Finding The Centre' - and also includes several previously uncollected essays.
Concentrating mainly on VS Naipaul's writings about India, the Americas, Africa and the Diaspora, it is a clear-eyed and magnificent introduction to the writer's extraordinary world.
