WARLIGHT by Michael Ondaatje. He is the winner of the Booker Prize for THE ENGLISH PATIENT. I have not read The English Patient. This is the first book that I have read by Michael Ondaatje. The writing is very beautiful.
This book was chosen for our September read by our book club. We had a great discussion of the book while eating delicious apple cake. Greg is spoiling us; he baked a scrumptious lemon cake and shared it with us last month.
Below are some of my favourite quotes from the book.

"The ants in the grass climbing their green towers."

"When we were small our mother used to say, A cuckoo from the east means comfort, from the west luck, from the north sadness, from the south death."

Marsh Felon was the boy on the roof.

"Wars are never over. 'Seville to wound. Córdoba to die in.' Remember?"

"We never know more than the surface of any relationship after a certain stage, just as those layers of chalk, built from the efforts of infinitesimal creatures, work in almost limitless time."

"I used often to lie awake through the whole night, and wish for a large pearl."
