Abstract: Post-colonial theory emerged in the middle 20th century. Naipaul is considered as one of the most prominent post-colonial writers, and his works are undoubtedly worth reading if one is to study post-colonial and immigrational literature. "Miguel Street" is the first work of Naipaul as post-colonial literature which precisely shapes a number of people who live in a marginalized world, and it mainly reveals the people who live under the colonial rules and face a cultural identity crisis. Combined with post-colonial theory, this paper briefly analyzes post-colonialism in Naipaul’s work from the perspective of female, political and cultural predicaments, and identity building.
Key words: Naipaul; Miguel Street; post-colonialism; identity crisis
