《大河湾》是诺贝尔文学奖得主奈保尔的代表作之一,可以说该书还原了一个多重话语下“真实的非洲”。但是对于非洲,对于历史不感兴趣的人来说,《大河湾》仍旧是杰作,它的主题不仅是非洲,而是与每个人都相关的,更为宏大的东西,那就是变化,以及面对变化时的身份焦虑与角色...
评分奈保尔的《河湾》无论从哪个方面看,都是极佳之作。迷离摇摆的情感随着足迹与目光的不断流动,在河流之湾淌成一曲关乎存在者永远“在而不属”的挽歌。 故事以萨林姆的观察叙述为主体,这是一位在非洲生活百年的穆斯林家族后人,他从准岳父手中接手了一个刚果河弯处的小店,以...
评分《大河湾》这部小说,其主旨是写一个非洲人在复杂多变的历史与现实环境中寻找自我意识,寻求生存意义;而对非洲尤其是中部那条河流的描写,更让这部小说看起来更加具有严肃与纯正的文学意味。 但我不想对这部小说的严肃主旨多加评论,因为这样的好评论已经无数。我只想说说在...

Brilliant and terrifying' - "Observer". I had to be the man who was doing well and more than well, the man whose drab shop concealed some bigger operation that made millions. I had to be the man who had planned it all, who had come to the destroyed town at the bend in the river because he had foreseen the rich future. 'Salim, the narrator, is a young man from an Indian family of traders long resident on the coast of Central Africa. Salim has left the coast to make his way in the interior, there to take on a small trading shop of this and that, sundries, sold to the natives. The place is 'a bend in the river'; it is Africa. The time is post-colonial, the time of Independence. The Europeans have withdrawn or been forced to withdraw and the scene is one of chaos, violent change, warring tribes, ignorance, isolation, poverty and a lack of preparation for the modern world they have entered, or partially assumed as a sort of decoration. It is a story of historical upheaval and social breakdown. Naipaul has fashioned a work of intense imaginative force. It is a haunting creation, rich with incident and human bafflement, played out in an immense detail of landscape rendered with a poignant brilliance' - Elizabeth Hardwick. 'Always a master of fictional landscape, Naipaul here shows, in his variety of human examples and in his search for underlying social causes, a Tolstoyan spirit' - John Updike.
