No writer has rendered our boundariless, post-colonial world more acutely or prophetically than V. S. Naipaul, or given its upheavals such a hauntingly human face. A perfect case in point is this riveting novel, a masterful and stylishly rendered narrative of emigration, dislocation, and dread, accompanied by four supporting narratives.
In the beginning it is just a car trip through Africa. Two English people--Bobby, a civil servant with a guilty appetite for African boys, and Linda, a supercilious “compound wife” [117]-- are driving back to their enclave after a stay in the capital [111]. But in between lies the landscape of an unnamed country whose squalor and ethnic bloodletting suggest Idi Amin’s Uganda. [111-12, 120, 130-1, 150, 178, 220-40] And the farther Naipaul’s protagonists travel into it, the more they find themselves crossing the line that separates privileged outsiders from horrified victims. Alongside this Conradian tour de force are four incisive portraits of men seeking liberation far from home. By turns funny and terrifying, sorrowful and unsparing, In A Free State is Naipaul at his best.

We all come out of the same pot, but some people move ahead and some people get left behind. Some people get left behind so far they don't know and they stop caring.
评分这里的人没有好坏之分，每个人生来就远离了故乡，手里握的只有绝望。
评分最后一篇如同嚼蜡。但前面几篇真的短小深刻。
评分这里的人没有好坏之分，每个人生来就远离了故乡，手里握的只有绝望。
评分有点失望。两个短篇还不错，主打的短长篇令人厌烦，通篇没话找话的大段景物描写，没看出起到什么必不可少的作用。其实整本书就是在讲cultural displacement，无论“从低向高”追求更好的生活，还是“从高到低”寻求自由，最终都事与愿违无所适从。
