Perhaps because the author was visiting his homeland from Canada, he is re-enamored of the heat, rain on metal roofs, bats and peacocks coming into houses, the riot of flowers and plant tendrils reaching into the windows. Perhaps it was just me but I felt completely disconnected from him as the narrator and couldn't muster up any sympathy or any feelings at all. He is Micheal Ondaatje's father.

In the past couple of years, I read a handful of beautiful memoirs by well- known novelists.

After Willie dies, Lalla is able to flourish as an individual, running her own dairy farm and making a name for herself as an eccentric socialite. This serves as the inciting incident on a plan that has been brewing for weeks: He will visit the place of his father's death, Sri Lanki. The ironic understatement with which these deaths, especially the last, are discussed enhances the sense of humour running through the memoir at this point creating the impression that life in Ceylon at this time was carefree and light-hearted. She is Mervyn Ondaatje's cousin sister who has been delineated by Michael Ondaatje as "minotaur" in the memoir. After his parents divorced, there were some financial constraints, as his father at one point resorted to chicken farming and his mother to managing motels or rooming houses. He had been planning to go to his place of origin, Srilanka, to find his roots or rather find how he became what he was currently. Ondaatje's mother, she left Mervyn and moved to England with her children to get a fresh start in life.

Technically he suffered from dipsomania, a condition where he could go for a few months without any alcohol but then go on a binge and drink multiple bottles of gin in a day for weeks at a time.

(Article begins on next page) 24 September 2021 439 Michael Ondaatje’s Divisadero as rhizomic novel Carmen Concilio University of Turin, Italy The aim of this work1 is to show how and why Deleuze and Guattari’s paradigm of the rhizome perfectly describes the structure of Michael Ondaatje’s novel Divisadero (2007) and offers a perspective through which it can be seen as an example of a cosmopolitan novel,2 one that activates a dialogue between the local and the global. One way to define Ondaatje’s novel is to test its capacity to be structurally, as well as thematically, rhizomic, that is, its ability to interconnect various non contiguous geo-political realities. In their philosophical work A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia (1992), Deleuze and Guattari proposed a new morphology, the rhizome, in opposition to the arborescent Western model of the tree with its branches, which is based on a binary 426 system of subsequent subdivisions by two, then four, and so on, and which assumes a relationship of origin and development from an original.

  • Recensie: Level 42***
    Recensie: Level 42*** Ancienne Belgique Brussel woensdag 27 oktober 2010 foto © Nick Legrand Recensie: "Dankuwel. Goede avond. We are Level 42. That's all I can remember these days“ zegt frontman Mark King van Level 42. Klokslag half negen gaat het zaallicht uit en dat zal zo'n uur en 35 minuten blijven. De band die zijn grootste successen in de jaren '80 kende, bracht een greatest hits-show in de AB "coz there is no new stuff“ verklaarde de zanger/bassist. Naarmate de show vordert vallen enkele doeken naar beneden zodat we albumcovers op zwarte doeken kunnen zien, links en rechts. Tijdens "Running in the family“ geeft ook het middenste zich prijs. "1980 -2010. Friends for 30 years“ prijkt er op. Dat moet dan als statement naar de fans gezien worden, want van de originele band schieten enkel nog frontman Mark King en toetsenist Mike Lindup over. Maar laat dat vooral de pret niet bederven. In de AB bracht Level 42 een goed geoliede show, soms een tikkeltje routineus met een knappe belichting. Tijdens de ballad "It's over“ zien we verschillende scanners een warm rode lichtstraal naar hetzelfde middelpunt schijnen zodat het geheel als een 14-puntige ster overkomt. Wanneer daar aan de buitenranden nog een streepje wit aan wordt toegevoegd, geeft dat en knap effect. Of hoe je met wat creativiteit tot mooie lichtresultaten kan komen. De band liet meermaals horen dat het in de jaren '80 oorspronkelijk vooral begonnen was met instrumentale jazz-funk nummers. Heel wat songs kenden lange niet gezongen stukken met elektrische gitaren en typisch voor die tijd en zijn genre ook de saxofoon.

  • Michael Ondaatje's Athe English Patient"
    Vosi-Apocalyptic War Histories: Michael Ondaatje's aThe English Patient" JOSEF PESCH THE TRADITION of apocalyptic writing in the US is well documented,1 only a few critics have tried to identify aspects of this tradition in Canadian literature.'2 This may be because there is no equivalent in Canada to the apocalyptic expectations on which the US was founded, and thus a literature which reflected such expectations and their disappointment was never written.3 In the latter half of the twentieth century, apocalyptic writing has become popular to a point at which "apocalypse" has lost all its original religious revelatory meaning. It has become a synonym for total destruction, annihilation, and nuclear end of the world. In the often sensationalist novels of this genre, nuclear apoca• lypse merely serves as a useful structural device for generating tension and suspense, in order to produce a teleologically ori• ented, linear development of plot and action as well as a dramati• cally effective, climactic closure. Just a few postnuclear war novels, classics like Russell Hoban's Riddley Walker or Walter M. Miller's A Canticle for Leibowitz (cf. Dowling), have ventured be• yond such structural simplicity. It seems as if it has been forgotten that the biblical apocalypse, as recorded in "The Revelation of St. John," is not just a vision of destruction and end of the world. Here, beginning and end coincide, and a New Jerusalem and new life are promised to the happy few. There is a time after the end, even if that "time" is paradoxically suspended in timeless eternity.

  • Gender and Entrepreneurship: a Comparative Study Between the Causation and Effectuation Approaches
    ARTICLE Gender and Entrepreneurship: a comparative study between the Causation and Effectuation approaches Felipe Luiz Neves Bezerra de Melo 1,† 1Instituto Federal de Educação Ciência e Tecnologia do Rio Grande do Norte, Nova Cruz, RN, Brazil Rafael Rodrigues da Silva 2,Ω 2Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, RN, Brazil Tatiane Nunes Viana de Almeida 3,¥ 3Instituto Federal de Educação Ciência e Tecnologia do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, RN, Brazil ABSTRACT The literature on the role of gender in entrepreneurship has been growing significantly in recent last years (FRIGOTTO; DELLA VALLE, 2016). However, little has been studied about the influence of gender in the conception of a business venture. In the search for empirical evidence to elucidate the debate about this gap in the literature, this research sought to verify whether there is an association between gender and the approaches Causation - based on causality - and Effectuation – based on contingencies - (SARASVATHY, 2001). For this purpose, a survey was conducted with Individual Micro Entrepreneurs (MEI) in the city of Nova Cruz/RN. A probabilistic random sample of 100 respondents was collected. The survey was composed of closed questions, including the profile of the entrepreneur, company profile and the Causation and Effectuation questions. The techniques of factorial analysis and multiple linear regression were used for data analysis. The results show a positive and statistically significant association between the female gender and the Causation perspective. Palavras-chave: Gender; Entrepreneurship; Causation; Effectuation. 1.

  • Memory and Place in Michael Ondaatje's Running in the Family
    FACTA UNIVERSITATIS Series: Linguistics and Literature Vol. 3, No 1, 2004, pp. 97 - 109 MEMORY AND PLACE IN MICHAEL ONDAATJE'S RUNNING IN THE FAMILY UDC 82.0/82.09 Milica Živković Faculty of Philosophy, Niš, Serbia and Montenegro Abstract. More concerned with the nature of meaning than with the definitional literary function of finding meaning, postmodern criticism usually does not reward the reader with new and fresh insights or perspectives into the ways of questioning and repudiation of dogmatic thought which it proclaims as its highest goal. Instead, critical interpretations seem to reiterate the well known premises on which postmodern theory rests: there can be no true or fixed identity, there is no origin or original, no singular author, no ultimate knowledge, and representation is no longer a matter of veracity or accuracy. Notions of truth and authenticity are outdated. And yet, within certain discourses (multicultural writing is one of them) there is a need for affirmation of self and origin, there is an integrity in authenticity. There is a desire to strengthen one's identity through the act of writing and reading, and lived experience plays an integral role in this. This essay is about this kind of literature whose theme is not the process of dispersal of the self into a number of subject positions but the transformation of the subject back into the individual. The emphasis that Ondaatje places on the importance of particularity, individual life and imagination as moral force shows that he has no interest in dismantling his identity but instead wants to confirm it, albeit in its hyphenated form.
