Novel

Divisadero

Michael Ondaatje

Criticism as the main characteristic of Ondaatje's writing emphasizes the successful merging of past and present and local and global themes, as well as a careful analysis of the psyche and intimacy of the individual in the context of social conflicts.

This book is not written, but woven. Each of her elegant sentences demands the reader's full attention, nothing is superfluous. Ondaatje is insightful and thoughtful, but never intrusive or offensive, and 'Divisadero' is the work of an exceptional novelist at his peak.
