krobart 's review for:

The Cat's Table by Michael Ondaatje

3.0

---

This fascinating story is the fictionalized tale of Ondaatje's own voyage from Sri Lanka as a boy to meet his mother and attend school in England. The novel is beautifully written in a series of vignettes, telling of events that affected several of the characters subsequent lives.
