Naipaul, V. S. (17.08.1932 - 11.08.2018)
The British writer with Indian roots, Sir Vidiadhar Surajprasad Naipaul was born on 17 August 1932 in Chaguanas (Trinidad and Tobago). He has lived in England since 1950 and was raised to the peerage by the British Queen in 1989. His breakthrough came with the novel "A House for Mr Biswas" (1961) about the life of his father. Naipaul was known not only as a novelist but also as an idiosyncratic travel writer who dealt in particular with the situation in post-colonial countries. In his later works, he again focused more on questions of identity and homelessness. Naipaul received several awards for his narrative work as well as his critical travelogues and was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2001. He died in London in 2018.
