Ebook About In the late 1970s Ondaatje returned to his native island of Sri Lanka. As he records his journey through the drug-like heat and intoxicating fragrances of that "pendant off the ear of India, " Ondaatje simultaneously retraces the baroque mythology of his Dutch-Ceylonese family. An inspired travel narrative and family memoir by an exceptional writer.Book Running in the Family (Vintage International) Review :
The writing is beautiful. Oondatje skillfully uses vivid language that makes the memoir engaging and poetic (not purely for the language, but also for actual poems Ondaatje chooses to include). He manages to engage all of the reader's senses and create world that often feel too appetizing to leave. For instance, Ondaatje brings us in to his replaying of sounds from a recorded Sri Lankan night: "In this silent room (with its own unheard hum of fridge, fluorescent light) there are these frogs loud as river, gruntings the whistle of other birds brash and sleepy, but in that night so modest behind peacocks they were unfocussed by the brain--nothing more than darkness, all those sweet loud younger brothers of night." He is constantly using such lovely details to bring the reader into this foreign world, and it was his skill with language that kept me reading to the end.And furthermore, there is such an intimacy in Oondatje's writing about family members. The minutest details, such as the way he noticed the changes in his mother's handwriting, display to a reader how well he does know these people, and how much he cares about them. For all the stories he tells, there is never a sense of bitterness or wanting to shame anyone. He tells very good things and he tells very bad things. He brings the people alive in his retelling of family history. In one instance, Ondaatje writes with humor the story of his father's multiple casual engagements and, later, his father's alcoholism. But he never laments that he's been psychologically ruined. There isn't bitterness. Instead, the only lament seems to be that he never knew his father as well as he'd wished he had. Near the end of the memoir he includes an anecdote of being with his father two days prior to death. Ondaatje writes, "You know it is a most relaxed thing when you sit with a best friend and you know there is nothing you have to tell him, to empty your mind." It's when he writes statements like these that one feels the genuine nature behind the memoir. Ondaatje brings the reader into both a foreign country and foreign family, yet makes us feel affection for them just as well as he does. A memoir where the author is a minor character. It presented an interesting picture of Sri Lanka (Ceylon) in post-colonial times with the remnants of its colonial past still visible here and there. The book is full of eccentric characters and funny stories. I would recommend it.
