The Mimic MenNaipaul, V.S.
Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"From MIGUEL STREET to THE MIMIC MEN, [Naipaul] has given us a series of novels which re-creates the life of Trinidad, and his own participation in it, very thoroughly; too thoroughly, by this time; the pasture is seriously overcropped. A FLAG ON THE ISLAND is the lead story of a collection, some of which hardly merited reprinting; though, to be fair, one or two are brilliant....But it is the title story that must concern us, a sharp yet sentimental fable on the theme of a social and cultural change within a small community, and the strange things it does to individual lives....[It] is an interesting fragment rather than a finished work: it is half-imagined and half-presented, having ceased to be cinema without becoming literature, and such interest as it has is interest we might get from looking into the author's working notebooks. But of course, with a writer as original and perceptive as Mr. Naipaul, that interest is considerable."
John Wain, New York Times Book Review, 4/7/68
