From the Nobel laureate–a spare, searing new novel about identity and idealism, and their ability to shape or destroy us.
Willie Chandran–whom we first met in Half a Life–is a man in his early forties who has allowed one identity after another to be thrust upon him, as if he could truly know himself by becoming what others imagine him to be. His life has taken him from his native India to England, Africa in its last colonial moment, and Berlin, until finally it returns him to his homeland. Succumbing to the demanding encouragement of his sister–and his own listlessness–Willie joins an underground movement in India ostensibly devoted to unfettering the lower castes. But seven years of revolutionary campaigns and several years in jail convince him that the revolution “had nothing to do with the village people we said we were fighting for…[that] our ideas and words were more important than their lives and their ambitions for themselves.” And, as well, he feels himself further than ever “from his own history and…from the ideas of himself that might have come to him with that history.”
When Willie returns to England where, thirty years before, his psychological and physical wanderings began, he finds the fruit of another unexpected social revolution (more magic seeds), and comes to see himself as a man “serving an endless prison sentence”–a revelation that may finally release him into his true self.
Magic Seeds is a masterpiece, written with all the depth and resonance, the clarity of vision and precision of language, that are the hallmarks of this brilliant writer.

读后感
後半部分，威利在倫敦接近中產階級生活，努力的自我重建，不是理論上的粉飾自我，而是更傾向於人格過度的自衛。 較之於婆羅門遺傳的虛無根性以及殖民地人自卑感的封閉，算是小心翼翼的邁出了一步。結果也許未必使人激動，但這個出發點卻不是犬儒式的。 小說結尾“不該抱有理...

评分比起十九世纪获得诺贝尔奖的黑塞的《在轮下》，我还是更喜欢二十世纪的奈保尔的《魔种》。 可以清楚地看见文学的进步。十九世纪的时候似乎因为浪漫主义在作祟，作家们总是喜欢找个僻静的地方一呆就是几年，不与城市做什么交流，满心恬静地种草散布，觉得这样的生活完美无缺，...
评分奈保尔72岁时最后一部作品，题目其实很令人困惑。这部作品全篇充满了苦涩。男主人公从来没有过正经的事业，始终在到处流浪，他本身的意见似乎并不重要，他更多是个见证者。威利出场时已经40多岁了，他早年在伦敦上学，遇见一个葡萄牙裔非洲人，两人结婚在非洲待了十八年，无所...
