A Flag on the Island is a collection of stories including an expanded scene with a different perspective from his novel A House for Mr. Biswas; a story appropriate for, but for some reason left out of, Miguel Street; two stories about the residents and owners of a boarding house; and ends with the title piece--a long unusual story about a man returning to a Caribbean island where he once lived. Naipaul's previous collection of stories, Miguel Street, was a wonderful description of life on Trinidad, and some of the stories here have the same whimsical air, but for the most part I prefer his novels to his stories. It's very hard for me to appreciate writing without an emotional connection, and this is something most of these stories are missing, particularly the title piece, which is long enough for character development but seems devoid of any real feeling.
Mr. Stone and the Knights Companion gets 4 stars but the others only get three IMHO.
