Naipaul, Guerrillas is a powerful novel of colonialism and revolution. 'A pioneering genius' - ProspectOn a troubled Caribbean island, Asians, Africans, Americans and former British colonials co-exist in a state of suppressed hysteria. Together with a leader of the `revolution', they act out a gripping drama of death, sexual violence, and spiritual impotence. Guerrillas depicts a convulsion in public life, and ends in private violence. Place and people are evoked with an intensity unrivalled elsewhere. The novel comes with extraordinary force from the centre of a profound moral awareness of the world's plight. `Remarkable . . . Guerrillas is a brilliant novel in every way, and it shimmers with artistic certainty' - The New York Times`Impeccable prose, precise, austere . . . Guerrillas seems to me Naipaul's Heart of Darkness: a brilliant artist's anatomy of emptiness, and of despair' - The ObserverNow part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.","brand":"V.S.
