具體描述
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 The Europeans have withdrawn or been forced to withdraw and the scene is one of chaos, violent change, warring tribes, ignorance, isolation, poverty and a lack of preparation for the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.

讀後感
在颱灣的幾天讀完瞭奈保爾的大河灣 作為一個純理科生對這種文學類作品讀的比較少，由於作者初始對於各人物的背景交待和狀態都比較模糊不清導緻看前兩章的時候經常會有一種很混亂的感覺。 小說以主人公薩林姆為瞭遠離自身的虛無而深入非洲腹地在大河所處的一個破舊小鎮開始新的...
評分茂密的叢林中，誰纔是真正的“非洲人”，還是隻是一些無足輕重的人，“在這個世界上沒有位置”？ 奈保爾提齣瞭問題，他是一個局外人，《大河灣》中對非洲的描述更像來自一個旅行者，就像薩林姆對“大人物”總統的看法，一個遙遠地方的形象，隻掛在牆壁上。這影響瞭作品所能達到...
評分 評分幸運能讀到奈保爾這本重要的書，何況是個好譯本。讀後你似乎不會懷疑，作者就是一個貨真價實的新非洲人，新非洲城鎮居民生活的窗戶縫兒裏，就那麼透齣光來。畢竟，隻有奈保爾什麼都能、願、敢寫。不過坦率地說，後半部裏浮現齣的不安和焦躁有點不匹配大師的穩穩手筆。即便隻是...
