Acerca de este libro
A Bend in the River is set in an unnamed postcolonial Central African country and narrated by Salim, a shopkeeper. Naipaul explores the chaos and violence suffered after independence and how a power vacuum can quickly lead to the tyranny of dictatorship.
Perceived by some to be written in defense of European colonialism, Naipaul admitted that he in fact knew very little about the region when he started writing the book. Despite this, the novel immediately won praise from critics for its poignant brilliance and was shortlisted for the Booker prize in 1979. In 1998 the Modern Library ranked A Bend in the River as one of the 100 best English-language books of the twentieth century.

Descripción:
New York: Vintage, May 1980. Paperback. V-314. First paperback printing of V. S. Naipaul's classic novel. Very Good. Prior owner's name penciled on first page. Text unmarked. Tanned. Spine straight, tight and uncreased. Reading and shelf wear. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. 278 pages. Naipaul takes us deeply into the life of an Indian who has come to live in an isolated town at the bend of a great river in a newly independent African nation. A most convincing and disturbing vision of what happens in a place caught between the dangerously alluring modern world and its own tenacious past and traditions.
