Anil's Ghost
by Michael Ondaatje
A wonderful choice for anyone looking for a novel strong in character, setting, and fine use of language. I knew absolutely nothing about Sri Lanka going into the story, but now I'm intrigued, and I have a vivid mental image through the book. The story wanders, and there's a plot but the real emphasis is on other things - it seems like an excuse to introduce us to the place and the characters and the context. Really lovely, despite all the sad things it contains.
