Title: Not what I expected
Review: I found this book to be quite a dissappointment. This is the only Naipaul work I have read and can only assume that his previous offerings must have been far superior in light of his recent Nobel prize award. This is definitely not a page turner. I forced myself through this book hoping it would develope and get better, but it didn't. I found myself disliking the main character to the point of simply not wanting to read about him any more. If this book is indicative of Mr. Naipaul's prize winning qualities I should perhaps conclude that I am not intellectually savy enough to appreciate his style. I did not enjoy this book and would be curious as to why this would appeal to anyone. Cheers!
