Om denne bog

One of BBC''s 100 Novels That Shaped Our World.

Heart-rending and darkly comic, V. S. Naipaul''s A House for Mr Biswas has been hailed as one of the twentieth century''s finest novels, a classic that evokes a man’s quest for autonomy against the backdrop of post-colonial Trinidad.

Part of the Macmillan Collector’s Library, a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold-foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition features an introduction by writer Teju Cole.

Mr Biswas has been told since the day of his birth that misfortune will follow him – and so it has. Meaning only to avoid punishment, he causes the death of his father and the dissolution of his family. Wanting simply to flirt with a beautiful woman, he ends up marrying her. But in spite of endless setbacks, Mr Biswas is determined to achieve independence, and so he begins the gruelling struggle to buy a home of his own.
