Michael Ondaatje is the first comprehensive and fully up-to-date
study of Ondaatje's entire oeuvre. Starting from Ondaatje's
beginnings as a poet, this volume offers an intensive account of
each of his major publications, including The Collected Works of
Billy the Kid, Coming Through Slaughter, In The Skin of a Lion and
The English Patient, drawing attention to the various contexts and
intertexts that have informed his work. The book contains a broad
overview of Ondaatje's career for students and readers coming to
his work for the first time. It also offers an original reading of
his writing which significantly revises conventional accounts of
Ondaatje as a postmodern or postcolonial writer. As the fullest
account of Ondaatje's work to date, Spinks's approach draws on a
range of postcolonial theory and, as well as being a landmark in
Ondaatje scholarship, makes a distinctive contribution to debates
about postcolonial literature and the poetics of postmodernism. --
