About this listen

The story of a writer's singular journey - from one place to another, from the British colony of Trinidad to the ancient countryside of England, and from one state of mind to another - is perhaps Naipaul's most autobiographical work. Yet it is also woven through with remarkable invention to make it a rich and complex novel.

what I expected to be an interesting and contemplative book lost almost all of its power through utterly tedious repetition in style and story
