Cover for Anil's Ghost

Anil's Ghost

by Michael Ondaatje

( Amazon )

Anil Tissera, a forensic anthropologist, has returned to Sri Lanka, a land steeped in culture and tradition, to investigate organized campaigns of murder engulfing the island. This is a story of love, family, and identity, set in a country torn apart and ravaged by civil war.

A very good book, stepping between places and times whilst progressing through the core storyline. Although it is a novel, it does appear to have been researched and provides a perspective on the Sri Lanka problem that otherwise I might not have known about.

My rating: Very good
