A House for Mr. Biswas by V. S. Naipaul, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

In his forty-six short years, Mr. Mohun Biswas has been fighting against destiny to achieve some semblance of independence, only to face a lifetime of calamity. Shuttled from one residence to another after the drowning death of his father, for which he is inadvertently responsible, Mr. Biswas yearns for a place he can call home. But when he marries into the domineering Tulsi family on whom he indignantly becomes dependent, Mr. Biswas embarks on an arduous - and endless - struggle to weaken their hold over him, and purchase a house of his own. | A House for Mr. Biswas by V.
