Answer:

Miguel Street is a collection of linked short stories by V. S. Naipaul set in wartime Trinidad and Tobago. The stories draw on the author's childhood memories of Port of Spain. The author lived with his family in the Woodbrook district of the city in the 1940s, and the street in question, Luis Street, has been taken to be the model of Miguel Street.[1] Some of the inhabitants are members of the Hindu community to which Naipaul belonged. Naipaul also draws on wider Trinidadian culture, referring to cricket and quoting a number of lyrics by black calypso singers.[2]

MrRa [10]

A good book review will:

  • Point out strengths and weaknesses in the book
  • Looks at what the author intended to do and whether or not he did it
  • Be between 50 and 1,500 words

The following is a guide to writing a book review; but, you need to know that they are just suggestions to think about.

  • Write down a summary of essential information, like title, author, copyright date, kind of book, price, subject matter of the book, and special features.
  • State the reason the author wrote the book.
  • Consider from what point of view the book was written.
  • Decide what the author was trying to accomplish.
  • Determine what kind of book is it, and who is the intended audience.
  • Discuss the author's style of writing and look at his cohesion, clarity, flow of the text, and use of precise words.
  • Think about how you were affected by the book and if any of your opinions or feelings change because of it.
  • Decide if the book met its goal and whether or not you would recommend it to others and why.
  • State the main topic of the book and the author's treatment of it. Also explain the development of the thesis, using quotes or references.
  • Discuss the author's descriptions and narration, pointing out whether he explained facts or tried to persuade the readers of the validity of an issue.
  • Analyze whether or not the book suited its intended audience and if it was interesting and thorough.
  • You may challenge his opinions and explain why you disagree with them. Include any information about the author that would establish his authority or that would be relevant to the review.

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Captain Nemo, probably the most famous character created by the godfather of science fiction, 19th-century French writer Jules Verne, was a broken genius driven to acts of evil by the desire for revenge. He was the better known as the submarine maker. His mysterious and enigmatic style - equal parts hard and vengeful and calm and feeling - leads readers to never quite understand who he is or what he's about.

He was tall and bold and has wide-set eyes. His sharp fetures with a well defined long nose made it hard for author to tell his age, whether he was 30 or 50.

Unlike other famous fictitious characters, he's a villain
