The Enigma Of Arrival

Book • 1988
The Enigma of Arrival is a novel that follows the journey of a young Trinidadian writer who moves to Wiltshire, England.

The story is largely autobiographical, reflecting Naipaul's own experiences of emigration and his observations of the English countryside.

The novel is divided into five sections and explores themes of departure, arrival, alienation, and the changing perceptions of the narrator's new environment.

It is characterized by its meditative and philosophical style, often abandoning traditional plot arcs in favor of elegant ruminations on everyday people and objects.
