Rezension zu „A Way in the World “
Praise for V. S. Naipaul and A Way in the World: "Dickensian...a brilliant new prism through which to view (Naipaul's) life and work."--"The New York Times" "For more than 50 years, V. S. Naipaul has been an important voice with his keen, often painfully blunt insights into modern cultures and societies.... He has travelled and observed, producing a wealth of fiction and non-fiction about modern life that is as thought-provoking as it is engaging." --"Edmonton Journal" "For sheer abundance of talent there can hardly be a writer alive who surpasses V. S. Naipaul. He is the world's writer, a master of language and perception." "--The New York Times Book Review" "Naipaul more than anybody else embodies what it means to be a writer.""--The Observer" "It is Naipaul's uncanny ability to...uncover the raw wood beneath the highly polished veneers, that places his writing among the best in the English-speaking world." --"Winnipeg Free Pres
