Una casa per Mr. Biswas

Naipaul's detailed portrayal of Trinidadian society feels so authentic. I wonder what influenced his choices in highlighting these aspects.

His constant struggle to carve out a space for himself resonated with me, but I also wondered if his stubbornness made things harder for him.

Naipaul's personal history seems woven into the narrative, and I'm curious how much of his life influenced the story's focus on social mobility.
