The Enigma of ArrivalPaperback, 12 April 1988

**From the Nobel Prize-winning author comes his " finest work" (Chicago Tribune)--and most autobiographical--taking us from the British colony of Trinidad to the ancient countryside of England. - "An elegant memoir, a subtly incisive self-reckoning." --*The Washington Post Book World

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