With contextualising essays by the editors, this collection of Seepersad Naipaul’s journalism is a treasure trove of Trinidad’s social history, particularly the making of the Indo-Trinidadian community. It is also a celebration of the talent of a writer whose turn of phrase makes the case for journalism as art, and of Seepersad Naipaul as an outstanding intellectual.
