Naipaul Speech and Style in His Own Words 1)Horace: Your style, that is a much-discussed 2)phenomenon.
Naipaul: Yes.
Horace: I even heard someone who had puted the erage number of letters in a word in your texts. That it should be four, I think.
Naipaul: Yes. I think.
Horace: If I remember right that may very well be correct. But, uh, I mean it’s obvious that to any reader the style strikes one...
Naipaul: Yes.
Horace: As transparent and very clear...
Naipaul: Yes.
Horace: I think 3)Coetzee said recently in an article recently that it’s cool and clean like a knife.
Naipaul: Yes, yes.
Horace: Um, and how do you arrive at that style? Is it something that es naturally or do you arrive at it by 4)elimination, by crossing out words, removing unnecessary adjectives and so on?
Naipaul: Well, it, uh, it begins with what I said earlier about how I learned to write, when I tried to get every sentence to say something, and I think that’s bee a habit. I no longer think I’m doing it but that is the habit of writing. So the writing moves very fast, and then, I do he to get everything I want to say, into, the sentences. I must be careful not in my speed to lee things out. Uh, I made a speech, a two-minute speech at the, the banquet, the award’s, the award’s banquet, I give you my word that was written three times. There were three drafts for it. One draft then typed out that corrected, then corrected yet again. First to get it all and then, one aspect was to get the spoken language, from that to get it, the, the quality of speech in it and, uh, the other thing was to, as it were to get, when I, I was talking about the watch, my watch strap was broken, and I wanted to make a little, a little story about this, for the, for the dinner. And I wondered about the symbolism, and I talked about various people of the past who looked for 5)portents and, uh, then I said, "Well, yes, it was because I was ing to the 6)ceremony. It was OK. That’s what it meant that time was going to stop and then, time was going to bee new and so the watch, then, had bee benign again." Now I had to and that came in about the third 7)version-the watch was benign again and it was telling me that my time was running out, and I had, I fot to put in the first draft: it was telling me without threat...
Horace: Hmmm.
Naipaul: That my time was running out.
Horace: Yes.
Naipaul: You know that is, these are the little things I do...
Horace: Yes, I see.
Naipaul: I hope the, I’m sorry to give it in this little fine detail.
Horace: No, no.
Naipaul: But, this is...
Horace: It’s most useful I think for the listener.
Naipaul: This is a lot how the writing is done.

奈保尔自述演讲与写作风格的关系
贺瑞斯∶你的风格，已成了广为讨论的话题了。
奈保尔∶是。
贺瑞斯∶我甚至听说有人算过你的文章里平均每个单词的有多少个字母。应该是四个吧，我想。
奈保尔∶对，我想是。
贺瑞斯∶要是我没有记错，那可能正确得很。但是，我是说，很明显，这种风格对任何读者而言都是引人入胜的……
奈保尔∶是。
贺瑞斯∶清晰，简洁就像……
奈保尔∶是。
贺瑞斯∶我记得最近库切在一篇文章里提到它从容、利落如匕首。
奈保尔∶是的，是的。
贺瑞斯 ∶你是如何练就这种风格的？自然而然的还是经过排除，经过剔除字词，去掉多余的修饰等等？
奈保尔∶哦，那始于我早前说过的学写作的过程，那时我尽量找句子来表达自己的思想。我想写作的习惯就形成了。我不再觉得自己在从事某项工作，那只是写作的习惯。因此，写起来很快，然后，我就将我要说的连成句群。我得当心别因为速度而落下什么。我曾作过一次讲话，一次两分钟的讲话，在晚宴上，得奖后的庆功宴，说实话，那篇讲话写了三遍。有三份稿子。写了第一份，修改后打印出来，再修改。首先把什么都写出来，然后，一方面要转成口语，从中突现语音质量，另一样就是，正是将要突出的——我那时正在说我的手表，我手表的表带断了，我想据此为宴会做点文章。然后我想到了象征主义，我便谈起以前的各种人物，他们都渴望一些预兆，然后我就说∶“哦，对了，因为我要来参加典礼，那没什么。其意味就是时间即将结束，然后时间将要更新，最后手表又回复常态了。”此时，我要进入第三部分了——手表回复正常，它暗示着我的时间匆匆流走，而我，没有把这一句放到初稿里：它告诉着我，没有带着凶兆……
贺瑞斯∶嗯。
奈保尔∶我的时间匆匆流尽了。
贺瑞斯∶是的。
奈保尔∶你知道，那些就是我做的琐碎事。
贺瑞斯∶对，我知道。
奈保尔∶我希望……对不起，我说得那么零零碎碎的。
贺瑞斯∶不，不要这么说。
奈保尔∶不过，这是……
贺瑞斯∶我想这对听众是极为有用的。
奈保尔∶这很大程度上说明了我的作品是怎么写出来的。
