Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. A beautiful hardcover edition of the Nobel Prizewinning authors haunting masterpiece of postcolonial literature "Brilliant." The New York TimesWidely hailed as V. S. Naipauls greatest work, this novel takes us into the life of a young Indian man who moves to an isolated town at the bend of…a great river in a newly independent African nation.Salim is doubly an outsider in his new homean unnamed country that resembles the Congoby virtue of his origins in a community of Indian merchants on the coast of East Africa. Uncertain of his future, he has come to take possession of a local trading post he has naively purchased sight unseen. But what Salim discovers on his arrival is a ghost town, reduced to ruins in the wake of the recently departed European colonizers and in the process of being reclaimed by the surrounding forest. Salim struggles to build his business against a backdrop of growing chaos, conflict, ignorance, and poverty.His is a journey into the heart of Africa, into the same territory explored by Joseph Conrads Heart of Darkness nearly eighty years earlierbut witnessed this time from the other side of the tragedy of colonization. Salim discovers that the nations violent legacy persists, through the rise of a dictator who calls himself the peoples savior but whose regime is built on fear and lies. In A Bend in the River, short-listed for the Booker Prize in 1979, in Naipaul gives us a convincing and disturbing vision of a place caught between the dangerously alluring modern world and its own tenacious past.Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket. Contemporary Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times.
