About this product
Product Information
The author of this book was a successful financier who gave up his job and travelled to Sri Lanka - the land of his birth. The theme of confrontation abounds as Ondaatje passes through the rites of passage to a deeper understanding of himself and the world. There are personal confrontations wih pain from the past - recollections of an idyllic childhood abruptly ended by boarding school in England, and memories of a charismatic yet tyrannical father, interspersed with confrontations of a more physical kind - visiting the tiny village of Punanai where a man-eating leopard devoured more than 20 villagers earlier this century, and visiting people who are part of the now declining colonial scene.
