Keywords:
Class Struggle, homeless, isolation, belongingnessAbstract
V.S. Naipaul’s ‘A House for Mr. Biswas is a beautiful work which deals with the theme of isolation, frustration, belongingness and negation in a colonized society: a society that twins cruel and callous to the aspiration of the protagonist, Mr. Biswas Naipaul has tried his best to project in his novels a sustaining course of all those who are rootless or homelsess. Keith Garebian rightly holds the view “Naipaul explores landscapes in order to present characters with a real home, a true place of belonging so that they will not continue to be homeless, wonders, unsure of themselves and their fates.
