书籍简介
奈保尔的《模仿者》是一部深刻的、感人的、常常是幽默的小说，它唤起了一个殖民地男人在后殖民世界的经历。
四十岁的拉尔夫-辛格出生于印度，在依赖英国的加勒比岛国伊莎贝拉长大，并在英国接受教育，他一生都在与文化迁移的煎熬作斗争。现在，他从自己的祖国流亡出来，住进了伦敦郊区一家古色古香的酒店，在那里他正在写回忆录，试图将秩序强加给混乱的生活。他的回忆使他认识到他的殖民地童年和后来生活中的文化悖论和有污点的幻想：他试图融入学校，他与一个浮夸的白人妇女的短暂婚姻。但是，正是回到伊莎贝拉身边，以及随后沉浸在一个新的自治国家沸腾的政治氛围中--各种种族幻想都在蠢蠢欲动--Z终为辛格提供了必要的洞察力，让他发现了幻灭的症结所在。
Naipaul's The Mimic Men is a profound, moving and often humorous novel that evokes a colonial man’s experience in the post-colonial world.
Born of Indian heritage, raised in the British-dependent Caribbean island of Isabella, and educated in England, forty-year-old Ralph Singh has spent a lifetime struggling against the torment of cultural displacement. Now in exile from his native country, he has taken up residence at a quaint hotel in a London suburb, where he is writing his memoirs in an attempt to impose order on a chaotic existence. His memories lead him to recognize the cultural paradoxes and tainted fantasies of his colonial childhood and later life: his attempts to fit in at school, his short-lived marriage to an ostentatious white woman. But it is the return to Isabella and his subsequent immersion in the roiling political atmosphere of a newly self-governing nation – every kind of racial fantasy taking wing – that ultimately provide Singh with the necessary insight to discover the crux of his disillusionment.
