A House For Mr Biswas

In the comic masterpiece which established him one of the greatest writers in the English language, Naipaul follows the fortunes of Mr Biswas, the outsider who refuses to conform to the customs of his grander in-laws whose house he lives in. Finally finding a house of his own, he triumphs over the smaller minds who would repress him.

In capodopera comica care l-a consacrat ca unul dintre cei mai mari scriitori de limba engleza, Naipaul urmareste destinul domnului Biswas, strainul care refuza sa se conformeze obiceiurilor socrilor sai mai norocosi, in a caror casa locuieste. Gasind in sfarsit o casa proprie, el triumfa asupra mintilor mai putin marunte care ar vrea sa-l reprime.
