Review
"For sheer abundance of talent, there can hardly be a writer alive who surpasses V. S. Naipaul. He is the world's writer, a master of language and perception."
— The New York Times Book Review
"The distinctive human voices he captures and the sense he creates of obscure but unforgettable individuals struggling with incomprehensible forces make Beyond Belief...a compelling book."
