Description

A luminous and challenging work of autobiographical travel writing. An Area of Darkness is V.S. Naipauls semi-autobiographical account-at once painful and hilarious, always concerned-of his first visit to India, the land of his forbears. From the moment of his inauspicious arrival in Prohibition-dry Bombay, bearing whisky and cheap brandy, he began to experience a sense of cultural estrangement from the subcontinent. It became for him a land of myths, an area of darkness closing up behind him as he travelled . . . The experience was not a pleasant one, but the pain the author suffered was creative rather than numbing, and engendered a masterful work of literature that is by turns tender, lyrical, explosive and cruel. With spectacular narrative skill, Naipaul provides a revelation both of India and of himself a displaced person who paradoxically possesses a stronger sense of place than almost anyone. A masterpiece of travel-writing Paul Theroux Brilliant Observer.
