Samenvatting
Ondaatje is the author of the recently published book ""In the Skin of the
Lion'' in which he uses photographs of historical events, people and ideas to
locate his characters. The novel, set in Toronto of the 20s en 30s, revolves
around the life, work and politics of the immigrant labourers, construction
workers and bureaucrats who built the city. The article describes how the
writing of the novel was influenced consciously and subconsciously by the
researched photographs. Some excerpts from the book complete Ondaatje's
contribution.
