The book entitled V. S. NAIPAUL: POST-COLONIAL MELANCHOLIA is about the oeuvre of V.S. Naipaul who won Nobel Prize of Literature in 2003. This book is an intensive study of the migrants; of Indian coolies; their hopes and aspirations; failures and fatalism; their cultural disruption and longing to go back to their homeland. The Indian collies were displaced people confused and bewildered. When they arrived in Fiji they referred the island as hell. Hartz (1991) refers to the" "grirmit ideology" as fossilized and regressive. They were a motley group of illiterate Indians migrated to these lands for money and security of life. Naipaul has discussed the dilemmas and predicaments of the colonized people who were the victims of the cruel politics of indenture. Terry Eagleton observes that this ideology is "affective, unconscious, mythical and symbolic" representing the historical sufferings of the coolies whose ancestors signed an unholy bond with the capitalist traders. The coolies signed the indenture rupturing age old traditions. Naipaul has depicted the cultural changes and the dilemmas of the migrants when they arrived in new alien land.
