Naipaul’s Vision

Shehla Ali, M.A. (English), M.A. (Eco.), NET and Alka Gopal, Ph.D.

Abstract

This paper intends to highlight Naipaul's work with special focus on his themes and vision of the world. This paper also discusses some of Naipaul's works in order to provide a better outlook on Naipaul's literary themes and techniques.

Naipaul’s Background and His Literary Career

Naipaul’s prolific career is well noted. Although his parents descended from Hindu immigrants from Northern India, Naipaul's inability to form a spiritual connection with his tradition could be felt in his work. Naipaul went back to his own life experiences for material. Naipaul enjoys a great command over English language and its tradition. On graduation, Naipaul started his career as a freelance writer. He became a writer in the mid-1950's, by examining his own Trinidadian background. He has received almost all the major awards in the field of literature, especially for his fiction work. The biggest accolade he was given was the Nobel Prize he received in the year 2001.
