The World Is What It Is: The Authorized Biography of V. S. Naipaul is a biography of the Nobel Prize-winning author V. S. Naipaul by Patrick French. It was published in 2008. The title is a quotation from Naipaul's book "A Bend in the River". The world is what it is; men who are nothing, who allow themselves to become nothing, have no place in it. French deals with Naipaul's life up until his second marriage in 1996.
