Beschreibung
[Stated First American edition] Near fine. Hardcover and dust jacket. Jacket differs from pictured. Dust jacket in protective mylar cover. Good binding and cover. Light wear. Faint foxing to edge. Clean, unmarked pages. 335 p., index, 21 cm. Focusing on the early 19th century, when British occupants inflicted a reign of terror on the island's black population, V.S. Naipaul's recreation of the history of Trinidad exposes the barbaric cruelties of slavery and torture and their consequences on all strata of society - from the idealist to the reactionary - in an account which penetrates aspects of a complex society. V.S. Naipaul was a Trinidadian writer of Indian descent known for his pessimistic novels set in developing countries. For these revelations of what the Swedish Academy called 'suppressed histories,' Naipaul won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2001. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 2307070029
