Description

Una novela tan desgarradora como hermosa, un canto a la dignidad del ser humano. Por el autor de El paciente ingles.

El fantasma de Anil nos lleva a Sri Lanka, un pais ahogado por siglos de tradicion y obligado a entrar en el final del siglo XX entre los estragos causados por una guerra civil.

En mitad de esta voragine, emerge Anil Tissera, una joven nacida en Sri Lanka y educada en Inglaterra y America que ha vuelto a su hogar como la antropologa forense encargada de descubrir el origen de la serie orquestada de asesinatos que envuelven la isla.

Con el telon de fondo de una civilizacion extinta y un paisaje elocuente, Ondaatje nos narra, con su estilo inconfundible, una historia sobre el amor, la familia, la identidad y los enemigos insospechados.

Novela galardonada con el Premio Medicis, el Irish Times International Fiction Prize y el Premio Giller. Resenas: Autentico heredero de Faulkner y Garcia Marquez, Ondaatje cuenta historias que a menudo parecen colisiones entre el tiempo y el espacio.The Boston Globe Uno de los autores mas innovadores y liberadores de nuestra epoca.The Guardian ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Anil's Ghost transports us to Sri Lanka, a country steeped in centuries of tradition, now forced into the late twentieth century by the ravages of civil war. Into this maelstrom steps Anil Tissera, a young woman born in Sri Lanka, educated in England and America, who returns to her homeland as a forensic anthropologist sent by an international human rights group to discover the source of the organized campaigns of murder engulfing the island. What follows is a story about love, about family, about identity, about the unknown enemy, about the quest to unlock the hidden past-a story propelled by a riveting mystery. Unfolding against the deeply evocative background of Sri Lanka's landscape and ancient civilization, Anil's Ghost is a literary spellbinder-Michael Ondaatje's most powerful novel yet.
