具體描述
作者簡介
Discursive and ruminative, more like an extended essay than a novel, the intricately structured chapters in this highly autobiographical book reveal "the writer defined by his . . . ways of seeing." Naipaul, in his own person, narrates a series of events, beginning during a period of soul-healing in Wiltshire, circling back to the day of his departure from Trinidad in 1950 when he was 18, describing his time in London before he went up to Oxford, moving back to Trinidad after his sister's death: these journeys are a metaphor for his life. With beautiful use of detail recaptured from an extraordinary memory, with exquisitely nuanced observations of the natural world and his own interior landscape, he shows how experience is transmogrified after much incertitude and paininto literature. This is a melancholy book, the testament of a man who has stoically willed himself to endure disappointment, alienation, change and grief. Naipaul lays bare the loneliness, vulnerability and anxieties of his life, the sensibility that is both an asset for the writer and a burden for the man. He demonstrates this brilliantly by describing other peoplemainly his neighbors in a village near Stonehenge. Using these characters as catalysts, Naipaul peels back protective layers of memory, sparing himself nothing, revealing the mistakes and inadequacies of his life. The drama resides in small incidents: the death of a cottager, the firing of an estate's gardener; with each account, the narrative is spun more tightly into a seamless tapestry, a powerful document by a master of his craft.

評分 評分像往常一樣，提前一個半小時到達公司，然後開始我一個小時左右的閱讀時間。這一次，我選擇的是印度裔作傢奈保爾的自傳體小說——抵達之謎。 我讀瞭2頁，發現味道有些不對，作者的敘述十分的囉嗦，開始像18，19世紀的作傢那樣，開始狂寫景物，而且一口一個"從我的文學之眼"看上...
評分奈保爾暫居索爾茲伯裏山榖的那段歲月，給人留下深刻印象。不同於美國西部的狂野和地中海沿岸的明媚，英國內陸的標誌是充斥著淒風苦雨的荒原。《抵達之謎》更明確瞭這種印象：陰冷的天氣、高大的山毛櫸、消失的玫瑰花。迷離的氣候，也給這片英國荒野平添瞭神秘的情調。 書裏都...
