作者简介
Discursive and ruminative, more like an extended essay than a novel, the intricately structured chapters in this highly autobiographical book reveal "the writer defined by his . . . ways of seeing." Naipaul, in his own person, narrates a series of events, beginning during a period of soul-healing in Wiltshire, circling back to the day of his departure from Trinidad in 1950 when he was 18, describing his time in London before he went up to Oxford, moving back to Trinidad after his sister's death: these journeys are a metaphor for his life. With beautiful use of detail recaptured from an extraordinary memory, with exquisitely nuanced observations of the natural world and his own interior landscape, he shows how experience is transmogrified after much incertitude and paininto literature. This is a melancholy book, the testament of a man who has stoically willed himself to endure disappointment, alienation, change and grief. Naipaul lays bare the loneliness, vulnerability and anxieties of his life, the sensibility that is both an asset for the writer and a burden for the man. He demonstrates this brilliantly by describing other peoplemainly his neighbors in a village near Stonehenge. Using these characters as catalysts, Naipaul peels back protective layers of memory, sparing himself nothing, revealing the mistakes and inadequacies of his life. The drama resides in small incidents: the death of a cottager, the firing of an estate's gardener; with each account, the narrative is spun more tightly into a seamless tapestry, a powerful document by a master of his craft.

读后感
“但这个久违的人受到了摧残。老妇般的脸是一个无药可救的人的脸。虽然他拒绝了我奉上的一杯酒（我的无意之举，我完全不知道他的近况），但坚持我该喝一杯，他谦谦有礼，反客为主。他过于明显的痊愈和其他凶险的疾病一样，只是暂时的缓解，让他再看一看他将离开的世界，让他道...
评分1950年即将满18岁的奈保尔开启了人生最重要的一段旅程，他先乘飞机从西班牙港到波多黎各，再乘船从纽约到南安普顿，离开了出生地特立尼达岛，到达了助他达成作家夙愿的英国。1986年，他写下了自传体小说《抵达之谜》。时年54岁的奈保尔已出版了15部作品，无论是使之声名鹊起的...
评分像往常一样，提前一个半小时到达公司，然后开始我一个小时左右的阅读时间。这一次，我选择的是印度裔作家奈保尔的自传体小说——抵达之谜。 我读了2页，发现味道有些不对，作者的叙述十分的啰嗦，开始像18，19世纪的作家那样，开始狂写景物，而且一口一个"从我的文学之眼"看上...
评分未读之前脑海中一直都有这四个字“抵达之谜”。这似乎是一个未知去往何处的旅程，但是却注定要去往，这个旅程本身不能停止，似乎是有方向，但又不明朗，人未知身在何处，更不知将去往何处。但是我们似乎终是要抵达，我们要去往何处，又该如何前往？ 抵达，或是迷失，或是方向早...
