The Nobel Prizewinning authors profound reckoning with his ancestral homeland and an extraordinarily perceptive chronicle of his first encounter with India.Whatever his literary form, Naipaul is a master. The New York Review of BooksTraveling from the bureaucratic morass of Bombay to the ethereal beauty of Kashmir, from a sacred ice cave in the Himalayas to an abandoned temple near Madras, Naipaul encounters a dizzying crosssection of humanity: browbeaten government workers and imperious servants, a suavely selfserving holy man and a deluded American religious seeker. An Area of Darkness also abounds with Naipauls strikingly original responses to Indias paralyzing caste system, its apparently serene acceptance of poverty and squalor, and the conflict between its desire for selfdetermination and its nostalgia for the British raj. The result may be the most elegant and passionate book ever written about the subcontinent.
