mbondlamberty 's review for:

The Cat's Table by Michael Ondaatje
2.0

I had looked forward to another book by Michael Ondaatje and was a little disappointed by this one. Again, reading in a pandemic is an escape I seek and this book is not sufficiently escapist.
Also, I listened to this book and there was a lot of back and forth chronologically and it wasn't necessarily confusing but it didn't give the easier linear feel.
Also, there are "damaged" people like other protagonists in Ondaatje's books but again in this time I was hoping for something a little easier on the psyche.
