Travel writings are considered as a genre of literature. Travelogues are the reproductions and duplications of contemporary socio-social and ethnic societies in which they were recorded. This book is an attempt to examine the ‘nation’ from an emigrant’s point of view. V.S. Naipaul as an author has immense potential to change the travelogues into texts, particularly postcolonial texts. Through a careful reading of Naipaul's trilogy on India, it can be understood that how his standpoints hit on a doubtful relationship with his involvement in India. Naipaul’s vision being covered by the diasporic consciousness brings forth his inquisitive mission to experience India, which was the base of his childhood remembrances, a mythical imaginary land from where his ancestors had come. In this book, we will study that his Indian Trilogy is not only a chronological archive of his physical visits to the nation, but it also throws light upon the revolution that reestablishes his relationship with the country of his forefathers.
