Abstract | Vidiadhar Surajprasad Naipaul is one of the most well-known writers of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Even his detractors have praised his research on history, culture, civilization, and ethnicity, which takes a journalistic approach to uncovering the past. He has been successful not just as a writer, but also as a tirade against third world countries—Trinidad, where he was born, and India, where his family came from—both of which he has often characterized as half-baked civilizations, and which have made him the center of controversy. In 1971, Nobel Laureate V.S. Naipaul was awarded the Booker Award for story for the novel in a free state, which is more of a collection of short story pieces based on the tales of the uprooted who fight to find their place in different kinds of free cultures. After all, exile and estrangement aren't something you choose: you're either born into it or it happens to you. But there are lessons to be learnt if exile and alienation refuse to sit on the sidelines nursing a wound: he or she must develop a conscientious (not indulgent or sulky) subjectivity. This article contributes to a better understanding of VS Naipaul's depiction of exile and alienation in In a Free State. |
