Among the Believers
'This book investigates the Islamic revolution and tries to understand the fundamentalist zeal that has gripped the young in Iran and other Muslim countries . . . He is a modern master.' - Sunday Times<BR><BR>Reissued in the Picador Collection, Among the Believers is V. S. Naipaul's classic account of his journeys through Iran, Pakistan, Malaysia, and Indonesia. 'The believers' are the Muslims he met on those journeys, young men and women battling to regain the original purity of their faith in the hope of restoring order to a chaotic world. It is a uniquely valuable insight into modern Islam and the comforting simplifications of religious fanaticism.<BR><BR>Part of the Picador Collection, a series celebrating fifty years of Picador books and showcasing the best of modern literature.<BR><BR>'His travel writing is perhaps the most important body of work of its kind in the second half of the century.' - Martin Amis, author of Time's Arrow and The Zone of Interest

A Bend in the River
Salim has spent most of his life on the east coast of Africa, living and working with his family. When he sets out to build a new life for himself, moving to an unnamed country in the heart of the continent, he believes he is doing so to fulfil his duty as a man. He buys a small shop in a sleepy town, at a bend in the river, where he sells sundries to the locals.<BR><BR>First published in 1979, A Bend in the River is V. S. Naipaul's vivid exploration of post-colonial Africa at the time of independence. Serving as a microcosm of this changing world, his bend in the river is a scene of chaos, violent change, warring tribes, ignorance, isolation and poverty. And from this rich landscape emerges one of the author's most potent works - a truly moving story of historical upheaval and social breakdown.<BR><BR>Now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.

In einem freien Land
Mit einem feinen Gespür für die unfreiwillige Komik menschlicher Schicksale erzählt der Nobelpreisträger V.S. Naipaul in fünf Geschichten von Menschen, die ihre Wurzeln verloren haben. Wie Santosh, der mit seinem Herrn aus Bombay in die USA kommt. Er, der barfuss herumläuft und am liebsten mit seinem Bettzeug auf der Straße schläft, muss nun im 25. Stock wohnen und lernen, dass eine Rupie kein Dollar ist. 'Naipauls tief verankertes koloniales Bewusstsein verhilft ihm zur intimen Kenntnis jener Menschen und Zustände, die er beschreibt.' Tages-Anzeiger

Literary Occasions
Eleven essays on reading, writing, and identity—which have been brought together for the first time—from the Nobel Prize-winning author. • “He brings to [nonfiction] an extraordinary capacity for making art out of lucid thought…. I can no longer imagine the world without Naipaul’s writing.” —Vivian Gornick, Los Angeles Times Book Review<BR><BR>Here the subject is Naipaul’s literary evolution: the books that delighted him as a child; the books he wrote as a young man; the omnipresent predicament of trying to master an essentially metropolitan, imperial art form as an Asian colonial from a New World plantation island. He assesses Joseph Conrad, the writer most frequently cited as his forebear, and, in his celebrated Nobel Lecture, “Two Worlds,” traces the full arc of his own career. Literary Occasions is an indispensable addition to the Naipaul oeuvre, penetrating, elegant, and affecting.
