具体描述
Brilliant and terrifying' - "Observer". I had to be the man who was doing well and more than well, the man whose drab shop concealed some bigger operation that made millions. I had to be the man who had planned it all, who had come to the destroyed town at the bend in the river because he had foreseen the rich future. 'Salim, the narrator, is a young man from an Indian family of traders long resident on the coast of Central Africa. Salim has left the coast to make his way in the interior, there to take on a small trading shop of this and that, sundries, sold to the natives. The place is 'a bend in the river'; it is Africa. The time is post-colonial, the time of Independence. The Europeans have withdrawn or been forced to withdraw and the scene is one of chaos, violent change, warring tribes, ignorance, isolation, poverty and a lack of preparation for the modern world they have entered, or partially assumed as a sort of decoration. It is a story of historical upheaval and social breakdown. Naipaul has fashioned a work of intense imaginative force. It is a haunting creation, rich with incident and human bafflement, played out in an immense detail of landscape rendered with a poignant brilliance' - Elizabeth Hardwick. 'Always a master of fictional landscape, Naipaul here shows, in his variety of human examples and in his search for underlying social causes, a Tolstoyan spirit' - John Updike.

读后感
《大河湾》是诺贝尔文学奖得主奈保尔的代表作之一，可以说该书还原了一个多重话语下“真实的非洲”。但是对于非洲，对于历史不感兴趣的人来说，《大河湾》仍旧是杰作，它的主题不仅是非洲，而是与每个人都相关的，更为宏大的东西，那就是变化，以及面对变化时的身份焦虑与角色...
评分你知道，生活就是这样。 1、 坐在这里写这篇读后，我首先就要像这个标题一样坚韧：我要克服阅读完一本伟大作品之后的失语，写点什么下来。此刻、现在，而不是明天后天大后天。 什么是奈保尔式的开头（好多书评里都提到的）我不知道。一个读者不是被开头吓大的。是读完之后长久...
