S. Naipaul published An Area of Darkness, his semi-autobiographical account of a year in India. Two visits later, prompted by the Emergency of 1975, he came to write India: A Wounded Civilization.In this work, he casts a more analytical eye than before over Indian attitudes, while recapitulating and further probing the feelings aroused in him by this vast, mysterious, and agonized country. What he saw and heard - evoked so superbly and vividly in these pages - reinforced in him a conviction that India, wounded by a thousand years of foreign rule, had not yet found an ideology of regeneration.A work of fierce candour and precision, it is also a generous description of one man's complicated relationship with the country of his ancestors.The second book in V. S. Naipaul's acclaimed Indian trilogy, India: A Wounded Civilization follows An Area of Darkness. The series concludes with India: A Million Mutinies Now.Part of the Picador Collection, a series celebrating fifty years of Picador books and showcasing the best of modern literature.","brand":"Libreria Fiore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54038361899354,"sku":null,"price":15.68,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7382\/1274\/files\/14132743482556.jpg?v=1776770845","url":"https:\/\/libreriafiore.it\/products\/india-a-wounded-civilization","provider":"Libreria Fiore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
