Book summaryMedia reviews"Apparently Ondaatje's life was transformed after reading a biography of Burton, a transformation that impelled him to embark on this journey. The journey, however, is somewhat different from what Burton's would have been like....If Ondaatje's journey does not quite approximate Burton's, his prose matches Burton's even less....Nevertheless, there are good things in the book, and it increasingly involves the reader as it progresses." |
