Backlist titles on Nobel Prize-winner V. S. Naipaul

 

Book Jacket: "V. S. Naipaul: A Materialist Reading" by S. R. Cudjoe

V. S. Naipaul
A Materialist Reading
Selwyn R. Cudjoe

Naming this an Outstanding Academic Book, Choice wrote: "This may be the first book-length study of the works of V. S. Naipaul to both appreciate the writer's many merits and criticize his severe limitations. Bringing significant insights from contemporary psychoanalytic and literary theories to bear on Naipaul's work, and situating the writer within the West Indian cultural context that he first absorbed, then rejected, Cudjoe shows how Naipaul's work evolved from honest and fruitful investigation of the questions of identity in post-colonial society to an obsession with obliterating the value, even the integrity, of Third World peoples."
