Though we knew that something was wrong with our society, we made no attempt to assess it. Trinidad was too unimportant and we could never be convinced of the value of reading the history of a place which was, as everyone said, only a dot on the map of the world.
The Middle Passage by V.S. Naipaul
The writer here maintains that Trinidad
- A. was too insignificant to have a history
- B. was so small that its people did not value its history
- C. was a mere dot and did not therefore attract people's attention
- D. lacked historical significance bcause it could not compete with the rest of the world.
