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

評分 評分奈保爾這個名字我真的聽瞭不知道多少次,但一直都不是特彆敢讀,因為名聲太大如雷貫耳,也因為印度這個地方在我心裏實在是太大太神秘,不說彆的,每年asia week new york上東區幾個展印度藏品的畫廊就每次在語言上都能震懾到我,從梵文到英文直接就讓我懵圈的節奏,覺得這玩意...
評分夜讀奈保爾的印度三部麯,很簡單的遊記文學,和餘鞦雨的山居筆記有些類似。但是水平感覺高太多瞭。餘鞦雨的隻是散文,奈保爾的遊記感覺整體上渾然一體,不是那種散淡的感覺。 不僅僅在廣度上具有小說的特點,奈保爾的這3部遊記在深度上也遠非餘鞦雨能夠達到的。餘鞦雨的文章...
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...
