Naipaul's travels in India refer to the Indian trilogy? Those who have seen it answer

Dark Country: A Journey to India with Memory and Reality (new edition) (one of the Indian trilogy) tells the story of Naipaul's first trip to India, which is the home of his father's grandparents. From Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, and then to his grandfather's hometown, this "stranger" and "passerby" with a warm identity saw poverty and ugliness everywhere, and felt shock, anger, alienation, contempt and loss. In the spring of cynicism and detachment, the chaos in post-colonial India is so helpless and desperate. This year's trip to India is actually his inner journey to explore his own history and identity, but his harvest is that India belongs to the night-a dead world and a long journey.

His narrative skills are excellent, revealing India and his heart step by step, which is very interesting to read ... There is a kind of person who knows this place better than anyone in his hometown: Mr. Naipaul is a prominent example.
