V.S.奈保爾(V.S.Naipaul):
英國當代作傢,文化巨匠。1932年生於特立尼達島上一個印度移民傢庭,1950年進入牛津大學攻讀英國文學,畢業後遷居倫敦。
50年代開始寫作,作品以小說、遊記、文論為主,主要有《畢斯沃斯先生的房子》、《米格爾街》、《自由國度》、《河灣》與“印度三部麯”等。其作品在全球享有盛譽,半個世紀裏,將裏斯奬、毛姆奬、史密斯奬、布剋奬、第一屆大衛·柯恩文學奬等收入囊中。1990年,被英國女王封為爵士。2001年,榮獲諾貝爾文學奬。
THE FIRST BOOK IN V.S. NAIPAUL'S ACCLAIMED INDIAN TRILOGY An Area of Darkness is V.S. Naipaul's semi-autobiographical account at once painful and hilarious, but always thoughtful and considered of his first visit to India, the land of his forebears. He was twenty-nine years old; he stayed for a year. From the moment of his inauspicious arrival in Prohibition-dry Bombay, bearing whisky and cheap brandy, he experienced a cultural estrangement from the subcontinent. It became for him a land of myths, an area of darkness closing up behind him as he travelled ...The experience was not a pleasant one, but the pain the author suffered was creative rather than numbing, and engendered a masterful work of literature that provides a revelation both of India and of himself: a displaced person who paradoxically possesses a stronger sense of place than almost anyone. 'Brilliant' Observer 'A masterpiece of travel-writing' Paul Theroux 'His narrative skill is spectacular.' The Times

酒店裏有wifi,繼續寫起。 第二次來香港的諾亞方舟。和大傢玩瞭一天遊戲,沒看書。酒店裏幾本雜誌,翻翻沒什麼內容。包裏帶瞭一本奈保爾的遊記,人多也不方便讀書。 想來,讀書是一件非常私人的事情。人多不適宜,太鬧不適宜。公共空間裏的私人閱讀多少不閤時宜。 奈保爾的遊記...
評分從十年前奈保爾得奬的那一天,就一直在聽說他如何失去瞭根,他一隻在尋找身份認同什麼什麼。但這種感覺卻一直沒有發自心底。 後來在讀《半生》的時候,這種感覺纔第一次到來。 而在重讀印度三部麯的時候,終於明白,奈保爾為什麼用一種苛刻得甚至讓人憤怒的心理來看印度的原因...

評分讀V.S.奈保爾是緣於年初參加的一個以迴望80年代文學思潮為主題的講座,當主持人希望颱上的嘉賓各自推薦幾本近年來閱讀到的難以忘懷的好書時,其中的兩位不約而同提到瞭這個我並不熟悉的諾貝爾文學奬獲得者的名字,以及他的印度三部麯。 如果說在我混雜的閱讀經驗裏有...

The world is illusion,the Hindus say.We talk of despair,but true despair lies too deep for formulation..in a world where illusion could only be a concept and not something felt in the bones,it was slipping away from me.I felt it as something true which I could never adequately express and never seize again.看得我膽戰心驚的遊記 奈保爾用鋒利而諷刺的語氣把話說得那麼死 不知道後兩本會寫成怎樣
