About this audiobook
Former government minister Ralph Singh is the perpetual outsider: displaced, disillusioned and now living in exile, Ralph reflects on his earlier life and the searing effects of colonialism. RalphÕs constant estrangement sees him ever attempting to fit into various communities, only to find home in more transient spaces. Born on the tropical island of Isabella, he is one of West IndiaÕs many ÔMimic MenÕ.ÊBooker and Nobel Prize-winning author V.S. NaipaulÕs sixth novel is a brutal and perceptive commentary on the postcolonial condition of the colonial man.
