具体描述
THE FIRST BOOK IN V.S. NAIPAUL'S ACCLAIMED INDIAN TRILOGY An Area of Darkness is V.S. Naipaul's semi-autobiographical account at once painful and hilarious, but always thoughtful and considered of his first visit to India, the land of his forebears. He was twenty-nine years old; he stayed for a year. From the moment of his inauspicious arrival in Prohibition-dry Bombay, bearing whisky and cheap brandy, he experienced a cultural estrangement from the subcontinent. It became for him a land of myths, an area of darkness closing up behind him as he travelled ...The experience was not a pleasant one, but the pain the author suffered was creative rather than numbing, and engendered a masterful work of literature that provides a revelation both of India and of himself: a displaced person who paradoxically possesses a stronger sense of place than almost anyone. 'Brilliant' Observer 'A masterpiece of travel-writing' Paul Theroux 'His narrative skill is spectacular.' The Times

读后感
此书的名气很大，没有读过好像有点。。。。。。 可能是翻译的问题，有些章节我有点不明白作者想要表达的观点，有些地方实在是前后表述有矛盾。 作为游记，作者的观察不能不说是仔细与敏锐了，但是我始终不能赞同贯穿全书的，对印度文化和印度人批评的态度。 作者给人一种高...
评分可取之处：遇到的人和故事。最喜欢的一章是住在旅馆里的那些，欺软怕硬的仆人，尽管他的文笔如此乏味。 印度人很多方面和中国很像，冗繁的官僚机构，低的可怕的办事效率，狡猾而贫穷的老百姓。除了大便用手。 所以我觉得，中国还不是亚洲最糟的国家。
评分那天看完《幽黯国度》，奈波尔写印度文明的反省大作。当时出版时并没有特别留意，识见有限的我根本还不认得奈波尔到底有什么了不起的地方。读其中奈波尔写到朝圣的一段，不知怎的心中老是想到瑞典探险家斯文．赫定，莫名的种族优越感总在笔触中不经意地流露。奈波尔是千里达裔...
评分Aziz先生是达尔湖上丽华饭店的一位员工，第一次见面的时候，他打着赤脚，上身穿一件脏兮兮、紧绷绷的灰色套头毛衣，下身系一条宽大的白色棉裤，腰间扎着一根绳子，头上还戴着一顶松垮垮的、羊毛编织的睡帽。Aziz先生说服我们付了三个月的定金，向我们承诺会在房间里安装抽水马...
评分奈保尔拥有过人的文笔和洞察力，使得这本印度游记更像是一本剖析 60 年代印度文化的书籍。他特殊的身份（印度裔、英国籍的特立尼达人）带来了一种异于常人的视角，神秘的印度对他来说既新鲜又怀旧，他将那些呈现于表面的文化现象一一拨开，试图探寻这个国度的古老筋脉，并剖析...
