The narrative follows Mr. Biswas, a man of Indian descent in Trinidad, who struggles for autonomy and a sense of belonging amidst familial and societal pressures. His quest for a home symbolizes the broader themes of identity, displacement, and the pursuit of dreams. Naipaul's blend of humor and tragedy captures the complexities of life, making it a poignant exploration of personal and cultural struggles in a post-colonial context.
