dwijo 's review for:
Anil's Ghost
by Michael Ondaatje
This is my fourth Ondaatje, and probably my least favorite. There have been better works written on the Sri Lankan civil war, and among Ondaatje’s own work Running in the family is definitely the superior Sri Lanka based work (also far less depressing!). All that aside, this is still Ondaatje - so the writing is damn pretty and the characters are memorable. Would recommend this if you already enjoy his work. But definitely not the novel to start exploring his work with.
