This well-researched, if too brief (one hour), biography includes film clips and interviews with Miss Brooks and her friends and colleagues. Shirley MacLaine's narration is wonderful and sympathetic.  A Writer's People: Ways of Looking and Feeling (Vintage International) $15.00 This small book contains some information about the struggling beginnings of the author as a BBC part-timer and a book reviewer, and also about the writers - as a writer or as a person (A. Powell) - who had a certain influence on his writing career. V.S. Naipaul wants to show us the real vision (the feeling and seeing) of an author in his work. However, his book says more about the treatments of (historical) events (like his comparison between Polybius and Flaubert's Salammb or Julius Caesar's biased view), of simply daily life acts (Virgil's Moretum), of moods (D. Walcott's St. Lucia, his own on Trinidad) and of Indian history (the autobiographies of Gandhi, Nehru or N. Chaudhuri). Writing is indeed a product of a specific historical and cultural vision, but it should in the first place reflect the author's vision on general human problems. This is a minor book by a great writer. Only for V.S. Naipaul fans. N.B. This book has no index. |
