8vo, cloth-backed boards, dust jacket. Fine copy. A Turn in the South is Mr. Naipaul's first book to speak directly to an American audience. It does sometimes take an outsider to help a culture see more clearly the things that are close to it. Naipaul demonstrates an astounding clarity of vision as he describes such places as Atlanta, Charleston, Tallahassee, Tuskegee, Jackson, Nashville and other places in the American South. We hear the voices of the people - black, white, rich poor, politicians, writers, farmers and ministers.
