Michael Ondaatje. The CAT's TABLE. Vintage, 2011.
Inspired by re-reading ANIL'S GHOST, I wanted to read this story of 11-year-old Michael's 21-day voyage on the Oronsay from Ceylon to London to reunite with his mother. It reads like memoir with subtle shifts into the future and how it was/is informed by the past. Also wanted to read this, waiting in a pile for several months, so that I am ready to read WARLIGHT which sounds so good.
