manavisharma 's review for:
A Bend in the River
by V.S. Naipaul
My one word review would be - meh. I felt that the book had interesting ideas and I was excited for them to be expanded upon as I haven't ready too many books set in this region in this time period. But everytime we hit something that seemed like it would be worth diving into, the book just turned to another direction.
I was also jarred by the casual domestic violence thrown in there and never mentioned or penalized or even talked about.
I'd say this had potential but was unable to build on it.
