VS Naipaul discusses his life and being a writer in this precious segment from the Dhaka Lit Fest 2016. Naipaul's point about anxiety and the desire to become that lovely thing, a writer, hits home. Lady Naipaul's story about the manuscript for A House for Mr. Biswas being left on the kitchen table while Vidia went on vacation adds a nice personal touch. One would also love to hear more about Augustus, Naipaul's adored cat.
