I was eleven, no more, when the wish came to me to be a writer; and then very soon it was a settled ambition. But for the young V. S. Naipaul, there was a great distance between the wish and its fulfillment. To become a writer, he would have to find ways of understanding three very different cultures: his family's half-remembered Indian homeland, the West Indian colonial society in which he grew up, and the wholly foreign world of the English novels he read.

In this essay of literary autobiography, V. S. Naipaul sifts through memories of his childhood in Trinidad, his university days in England, and his earliest attempts at writing, seeking the experiences of life and reading that shaped his imagination and his growth as a writer. He pays particular attention to the traumas of India under its various conquerors and the painful sense of dereliction and loss that shadows writers' attempts to capture the country and its people in prose.

Naipaul's profound reflections on the relations between personal or historical experience and literary form, between the novel and the world, reveal how he came to discover both his voice and the subjects of his writing, and how he learned to turn sometimes to fiction, sometimes to the travel narrative, to portray them truthfully. Along the way he offers insights into the novel's prodigious development as a form for depicting and interpreting society in the nineteenth century and its diminishing capacity to do the same in the twentiethÑa task that, in his view, passed to the creative energies of the early cinema.

As a child trying to read, I had felt that two worlds separated me from the books that were offered to me at school and in the libraries: the childhood world of our remembered India, and the more colonial world of our city. ... What I didn't know, even after I had written my early books of fiction ... was that those two spheres of darkness had become my subject. Fiction, working its mysteries, by indirections finding directions out, had led me to my subject. But it couldn't take me all the way. -V.S. Naipaul, from Reading & Writing

  先简要说说这本小说的情节梗概:

  女主钱菲被相恋七年的男友抛弃，开始了一个人的居住生活，但是发现自己一个人无法支付她房子每月负担，所以决定租出去一个房间。

  钱菲的房子靠近市中心，交通便利，很快刚刚回国的一对小情侣，男主李亦非和他女友就租下钱菲的一个房间，钱菲与李亦非也就开始了一段“同居生活”。而凑巧的是钱菲与李亦非都在投行工作。

  这一对刚回国的小情侣因生活的琐碎，性格的不合常常吵架，男方大少爷脾气，从不做家务，女方小公主，也不做家务，抱怨出租房环境不好，也因男方不做家务时常抱怨。最后女方劈腿男主李亦非，搬出出租屋。

  与此同时，钱菲与李亦非因为工作关系也渐渐熟悉，在工作和房友的交往过程中，李亦非与钱菲性格上相互影响，工作上相互帮助，女主也迅速成长，并对彼此产生好感。

  虽然有好感，但李亦非知道钱菲对待感情特认真，不会对别人耍心眼，所以没有冒失的开始一段恋情。李亦非开始了一个月的出差，并在这段时间内明晰了对女主的深深的爱恋。

  钱菲也在思考与李亦非的交往节奏。而李亦非的行动也证明了他对她的付出。于是两人在一起了。

  其实呢，李亦非的老爸是一个大老板，所以李亦非就是富二代，故事很圆满。

  小说的情节安排合理流畅，可读性极强。虽然脱离不了富二代，但是以投行为背景也真实了不少。看着红九的文字，小说中的人物真的就在眼前活灵活现，还带声的那种。

  我一直觉得小说中所体现的价值观就是作者自身价值观，用生动的文字表达出来并使读者理解。红九心太玲珑，我赞同她的价值观。
