About This Item
Andre Deutsch, Great Russell Street, London - 1981 hardcover, 6½" x 9½", with dust jacket VERY GOOD book in VERY GOOD unclipped dust jacket V S Naipaul travelled to meet 'the believers' - mostly young Moslem men and women who are trying to regain the original purity of their faith in order to bring justice and order to their disoriented world. He met three Iranian ayatollahs and many other 'believers' -newspaper men, poets, students, lawyers, etc. Naipau's book provides a valuable insight into modern Islam; how men are driven to seek the comforting simplifications if religious fanaticism, and the price they have to pay for them.
