The only hardback edition of this acclaimed novel by the Nobel Prize winner who died last year.
Novelist and travel writer V. S. Naipaul was born in Trinidad in 1932. He studied at Oxford University, after graduation moving to London to work for the BBC. His novels include A House for Mr Biswas (also in Everyman's Library), The Enigma of Arrival and In a Free State, which won the Booker Prize.

He died in 2018.
Brilliant and terrifying * Observer *
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
