A house for Mr.Biswas is V.S Naipaul's unforgettable fourth book and the early masterpiece of his brilliant career.Born the wrong way and thrust into a world that greeted him with little more than a bad omen,Mohun Biswas has spent his fortysix years of life striving for independence.But his determined efforts have met only with calamity.Shuttled from one residence to another after the drowning of his father, for which he is inadvertently responsible, Mr Biswas yearns for a place he can call home.He marries into the domineering Tulsi family, on whom he becomes indignantly dependent, but rebels and takes on a succession of occupations in an arduous struggle to weaken their hold over him and purchase a house of his own.
