Pro Reviews: Bend in the River
'A Bend in the River' is more than a true and powerful book about Africa. It is...one of those books that make you question many assumptions about the world today.
Always a master of fictional landscapes, Naipaul here shows, in his variety of human examples and in his search for underlying social causes, a Tolstoyan spirit, generous if not genial. 'A Bend in the River' is the most genuinely exploratory novel about tropical Africa written by a non-African since Joyce Cary's 'The African Witch'.
Publisher Notes: Bend in the River
- In the "brilliant novel" ("The New York Times") V.S. Naipaul takes us deeply into the life of one man--an Indian who, uprooted by the bloody tides of Third World history, has come to live in an isolated town at the bend of a great river in a newly independent African nation. Naipaul gives us the most convincing and disturbing vision yet of what happens in a place caught between the dangerously alluring modern world and its own tenacious past and traditions.
