Running in the Family
by Michael Ondaatje
As anyone in IB at WPHS knows, this book was the worst thing you could draw during the English formal oral exam (so of course, I did draw it). Excluding the stress of trying to analyze this book for IB, I actually think that Michael Ondaatge's writing is very beautiful. If you allow the novel to sort of sweep over you and are not necessarily bothered with identifying plot devices, this book has both lovely and interesting poetry and prose as well as an intriguing family portrait and history snapshot of Ceylon (Sri Lanka). I am thinking of re-reading it, once I get far enough away from high school.
