The Enigma of Arrival

By: V. S. Naipaul

Narrated by: Simon Vance

The story of a writer's singular journey - from one place to another, from the British colony of Trinidad to the ancient countryside of England, and from one state of mind to another - is perhaps Naipaul's most autobiographical work. Yet it is also woven through with remarkable invention to make it a rich and complex novel.

An amazing account of change

He stands at one place and observes changes in the scenery of people and buildings with a keen eye for character traits. He brings everything to life like a painting.

Vance is Totally Terrific!!!!

The most important novel of a Nobel Prize winning author deserves a Nobel Prize-level performance -- and Simon Vance delivers! I almost cried when the performance ended -- partially due to the beauty of Naipaul's writing and partially due to Vance's masterful performance.

A MASTER AUTHOR

This is a masterpiece.
The more I read by him the more I appreciate his style of writing.
In this book he is very philosophical.
It really is an autobiography.
The narration by mr. Simon Vance is unsurpassed.
Thanks to all for making this book available to us, JK

Quite intriguing

A masterpiece by a master. It is an intriguing work. Written with a tang of arrogance, like only Naipaul can achieve.

Just wanted to leave stars
Requiring words is ridiculous!!!!!
Two words I’d like to write but won’t
