Product Description
Miguel Street
Author: V. S. Naipaul
Format: Paperback
V. S. Naipaul's first work of fiction is set in a derelict corner of Port of Spain, Trinidad, during the Second World War and narrated by an unnamed, sharply observant neighbourhood boy. Through his eyes we meet a vivid cast of characters, among them Popo the carpenter who neglects his trade to build 'the wild thing without a name', Man-man who stages his own crucifixion, the dreaded Big-Foot, and the lovely Mrs Hereira, in thrall to a monstrous husband.
Written with wit and wisdom, it renders Miguel Street as a living theatre and a world in microcosm, brimming with sights, sounds and smells.
