Seepersad Naipaul, Amazing Scenes: Selected Journalism 1928-1953 Paperback / softback

Edited by Aaron Eastley, Nivedita Misra, Professor Kenneth Ramchand, Brinsley Samaroo

Paperback / softback

Description

An unrivalled and very entertaining picture of the various and sometimes bizarre strands of Indian lives in colonial Trinidad.

Seepersad Naipaul is a pioneer, combining insight with high style, however strange or mundane his subject. With contextualising essays by the editors, this collection of Seepersad Naipaul’s journalism is a treasure trove of Trinidad’s social history, particularly the making of the Indo-Trinidadian community.

It is also a celebration of the talent of a writer whose turn of phrase makes the case for journalism as art, and of Seepersad Naipaul as an outstanding intellectual.
