1. Michael Ondaatje - Anils Geist / Anils Ghost - LESELUST-Rezension Rezension von Daniela Ecker. http://www.die-leselust.de/buch/ondaatje_michael_anil.htm

Michael Ondaatje - Anils Geist Originaltitel: Anils Ghost Roman. Hanser Literatur Verlag 2000 332 Seiten, ISBN: 3446199179 Nach beinahe 15 Jahren Abwesenheit kehrt Anil zurück in ihre Heimat, Sri Lanka - beauftragt von einer Menschenrechtskommision. Sie soll Beweise dafür finden, dass die Übergriffe auf die Zivilbevölkerung nicht nur den Rebellen, sondern ebenso den Regierungstruppen zuzuschreiben sind. Zur Seite steht ihr Sarath, ein Archäologe - auf welcher Seite er allerdings tatsächlich steht, bleibt Anil zumeist schleierhaft. Sie finden in einem abgesperrten Forschungsgebiet , das nur Regierungstruppen zugänglich ist, eine Leiche, die definitiv nicht aus prähistorischen Zeiten stammt. Könnte dies das Beweisstück sein, nach dem sie so lange gesucht haben? Auf einer abenteuerlichen Reise um Details zu erforschen, verschwimmen allerdings die Grenzen, wer schuldig ist - denn die Greuel, die hier geschildert werden, deren Zeugen sie werden, was ihnen erzählt wird - das alles klagt alle an, die sich mit Gewalt ihr Ziel erkämpfen wollen. Anils Geist - das ist ein Buch, das erst verarbeitet werden muss. Es ist keine stringent erzählte Geschichte - es sind Episoden, einzelne Bilder, die sich allerdings mit einer Nachhaltigkeit ins Gedächtnis brennen, die man nicht leugnen kann.

A n i n t e r v i e w w i t h M i c h a e l O n d a a t j e By GARY KAMIYA those who marvel at the luxurious energy of Michael Ondaatje's imagination, the muscular exuberance of his storytelling, the gem-like intelligence of his language, may not be surprised to learn that his own family history has been as fantastic as his prose. As he relates in his marvelous memoir, "Running in the Family," Ondaatje grew up in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), the child of a strong-willed mother and a brilliant, maniacally eccentric father who was given, when in his superhuman cups, to pulling revolvers on trains and forcing them to run back and forth at his pleasure. As Ondaatje explores his Dutch-Ceylonese genealogy, he paints a sad, hilarious, unforgettable picture of lives lived to a surreal tropical hilt: an entire society consumed by compulsive gambling, whether on the race-track or on which crow would leave a wall first; endless affairs; bitter, witty feuds carried out in the "comments" section of hotel registers. Salon spoke to Ondaatje in San Francisco, where he was on tour promoting the film.

Home English-Canadian Writers Michael Ondaatje Michael Ondaatje B.A. from the University of Toronto in 1965, and his M.A. Michael Ondaatje is probably best known for his work The English Patient (1992) which was adapted to an Academy Award winning movie. He started with poetry in 1967 publishing Dainty Monsters . In the title, we already see how Ondaatje enjoys juxtaposing opposite images, and as a result explores these seemingly incongruent ideas, a trait that links almost all of his works. His serial poem the man with seven toes The Collected Works of Billy the Kid (1970) and his first novel Coming Through Slaughter (1976) were inspired inspired by pictures, historical fragments as well as oral legends, many of which are included in the final published works. Ondaatje calls In the Skin of a Lion (1987) his first novel, and it takes place in Toronto within the Macedonian immigrant community. Again, he relies heavily on historical documentation for inspiration, weaving it into a fictional story. Two characters from this novel turn up again in The English Patient , another story based on historical archives. In 1982, he published
