VS Naipaul (17 August 1932 - 11 August 2018)
Vidiadhar Surajprasad Naipaul who passed away at age of 85 on Saturday, 11 August 2018 occupied a rather curious place. Never one to mince words, Naipaul had often been scathing not only against his peers but also against the place he belonged to.
V.S. Naipaul, the Trinidad-born Nobel laureate whose precise and lyrical writing in such novels as A Bend in the River and A House for Mr. Biswas and brittle, misanthropic personality made him one of the world’s most admired and contentious writers
Naipual won the Booker Prize for his novel In a Free State in 1971. In 2001, he won the Nobel Prize Nobel Prize in Literature. In his lifetime, Naipaul also won several other accolades and earned praises even from the most staunch critics.
His notable works are: A House for Mr. Biswas, In a Free State, A Bend in the River, The Enigma of Arrival.
Deep Condolences.
