From Venice to Vietnam, from the Welsh coast to Cairo, Don Meredith
has traveled in the wake of twentieth-century writers, using their
novels and poems as guides, as another wayfarer might turn to
Fodor's or the Guide Bleu. He has gone in search of the back
streets, basilicas, cafes, piazzas, and countrysides that figured
so powerfully in the works of authors who are especially attuned to
a sense of place. Part travelogue, part literary study, Varieties
of Darkness is Meredith's account of his exploration of Michael
Ondaatje's fascinating literary masterpiece The English Patient.
Meredith mines the places, the real-life counterparts of the
characters, and the curious creative mind of Ondaatje. Varieties of
Darkness offers fresh insights into the novel and Ondaatje's
prodigious use of scholarly detail.
