Reviews
" Warlight is a quiet new masterpiece from Michael Ondaatje...An elegiac thriller [with] the immediate allure of a dark fairy tale. In Warlight, all is illuminated, at first dimly then starkly, but always brilliantly."--Anna Mundow, The Washington Post " If writers are cartographers of the heart, Michael Ondaatje's oeuvre could fill an atlas. . . [he] evokes a kaleidoscope of ideas and moods with exquisite lyricism... Warlight is an intricate ballet of longing and deception, and a singular ode to the mother-child bond ." -- Hamilton Cain, O Magazine "[Ondaatje] casts a magical spell, as he takes you into his half-lit world of war and love, death and loss, and the dark waterways of the past."--Hermione Lee, New York Review of Books "Mr. Ondaatje has stepped into John de la Carré's world of spies and criminals...his novel views history as a child would, in ignorance but also innocence and wonder."--Sam Sacks, WSJ "A tender coming of age story so warmly delivered you almost forget how much of its plot involves smuggling, spycraft, and assassins...the novel becomes at once a mystery tale and an exploration into how much of our lives are out of our control, especially in wartime."--Mark Athitakis, The Minneapolis Star Tribune "Michael Ondaatje's novel Warlight is a masterpiece of shifting memory... a book made lush through layers of experience instead of description."--Bethanne Patrick, The San Diego Union-Tribune "[A] haunting, brilliant novel from Ondaatje...Mesmerizing from the first sentence, rife with poignant insights and satisfying subplots, this novel about secrets and loss may be Ondaatje's best work yet."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A lyrical mystery that plays out in the shadow of World War II...Ondaatje's shrewd character study plays out in a smart, sophisticated drama, one worth the long wait for fans of wartime intrigue."-- Kirkus Review (starred review), "[A] haunting, brilliant novel . . . Mesmerizing from the first sentence, rife with poignant insights and satisfying subplots, this novel about secrets and loss may be Ondaatje's best work yet." -- Publisher's Weekly (starred Review) "A lyrical mystery . . . Ondaatje's shrewd character study plays out in a smart, sophisticated drama, one worth the long wait for fans of wartime intrigue." -- Kirkus reviews, " Warlight is a quiet new masterpiece from Michael Ondaatje...An elegiac thriller [with] the immediate allure of a dark fairy tale.

This is a book rich with detail. The reader is bound to be conscious of a hidden ballast of research, the seven-eighths of the iceberg without which the thing would founder, but so deft is the writing that you forget this, simply appreciating the meticulous background that brings alive a time and a place. --Penelope Lively, The New York Times Book Review "A tender coming of age story so warmly delivered you almost forget how much of its plot involves smuggling, spycraft, and assassins...the novel becomes at once a mystery tale and an exploration into how much of our lives are out of our control, especially in wartime." --Mark Athitakis, The Minneapolis Star Tribune "Michael Ondaatje's novel Warlight is a masterpiece of shifting memory... a book made lush through layers of experience instead of description." --Bethanne Patrick, The San Diego Union-Tribune "[A] haunting, brilliant novel from Ondaatje...Mesmerizing from the first sentence, rife with poignant insights and satisfying subplots, this novel about secrets and loss may be Ondaatje's best work yet." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A lyrical mystery that plays out in the shadow of World War II...Ondaatje's shrewd character study plays out in a smart, sophisticated drama, one worth the long wait for fans of wartime intrigue." -- Kirkus Review (starred review)

Synopsis
NATIONAL BEST SELLER From the internationally acclaimed, best-selling author of The English Patient: a mesmerizing new novel that tells a dramatic story set in the decade after World War II through the lives of a small group of unexpected characters and two teenagers whose lives are indelibly shaped by their unwitting involvement. In a narrative as beguiling and mysterious as memory itself--shadowed and luminous at once--we read the story of fourteen-year-old Nathaniel, and his older sister, Rachel. In 1945, just after World War II, they stay behind in London when their parents move to Singapore, leaving them in the care of a mysterious figure named The Moth. They suspect he might be a criminal, and they grow both more convinced and less concerned as they come to know his eccentric crew of friends: men and women joined by a shared history of unspecified service during the war, all of whom seem, in some way, determined now to protect, and educate (in rather unusual ways) Rachel and Nathaniel. But are they really what and who they claim to be? And what does it mean when the siblings' mother returns after months of silence without their father, explaining nothing, excusing nothing? A dozen years later, Nathaniel begins to uncover all that he didn't know and understand in that time, and it is this journey--through facts, recollection, and imagination--that he narrates in this masterwork from one of the great writers of our time.

    Accidents happen. I received the incorrect CD, HOWEVER it is all about the service not necessarily the sale. Seller was quick to respond & make the order whole. I offered to send the incorrect CD back & the seller graciously informed me to keep it. I highly recommend doing business with this Seller. Constant communication my original item was exactly as described. Great packaging. Expedited shipping. Do not want to penalize someone for a minor human error mistake.
