What Nobel Prize winning British writer who was born in Trinidad, wrote "A Writer's People: Ways of Looking and Feeling"?
A Writer's People: Ways of Looking and Feeling A Writer's People: Ways of Looking and Feeling is a non-fiction book by V. S. Naipaul, first published in 2007, in which Naipaul discusses how the work of other writers has affected his own writing. The book attracted criticism in British literary circles for its uncharitable treatment of several notable authors, and in particular of Anthony Powell's novel sequence "A Dance to the Music of Time", especially since Powell was an old friend of Naipaul's.
Mervyn Peake Mervyn Laurence Peake (9 July 1911 – 17 November 1968) was an English writer, artist, poet, and illustrator. He is best known for what are usually referred to as the "Gormenghast" books. The three works were part of what Peake conceived as a lengthy cycle, the completion of which was prevented by his death. They are sometimes compared to the work of his older contemporary J. R. R. Tolkien, but his surreal fiction was influenced by his early love for Charles Dickens and Robert Louis Stevenson rather than Tolkien's studies of mythology and philology.
