About the Book

Praise for Suwan and The Circle of Seven Balkrishna Naipaul’s skill in seeing the world through the eyes of child abuse is the most impressive pieces of writing I have come across… It is the human interest of these stories that draws the reader’s attention most. The characters are well-defined and believable, and address problems which affect us all. The author makes no easy assumptions about resolving difficulties and conflicts. However, the possibility of spiritual growth offers hope amid the negatives of life– Prof. Kevin McCabe, Poet and Literary Critic. Praise for The Other Side of The House A Rare Literary Gem, Caribbean New Yorker Praise For Balkrishna Naipaul’s Trilogy It is astonishing what Mr. Naipaul has accomplished in this trilogy…In The Yoga of Love this is where story line enmeshes with social philosophy, and where, in the transcendental abode his theory of the yoga of love is brought to life. G-Times Literary Supplement. Praise for Legends of The Emperor’s Ring Balkrishna Naipaul uses language as how an acrobat would walk on a tightrope: he writes tightly, clearly and precisely, yet his constructions spin out into bursts of lyrical imageries. His lyricism sweeps and enwraps the reader in a sweet suspension between realism and surrealism. Churaumanie Bissundyal, Literary Critic and Playwright Praise for Arc Of The Horizon Balkrishna Naipaul has shown, in Arc Of The Horizon, to be a present-day Shakespeare, in so far as his mastery of the English language and understanding of the human spirit are concerned. Eugene A. Bronson, author, Spiritual Dawn: A Spiritual Autobiography
