Michael Ondaatje Quote: “During the day she notices mostly his arms in the short-sleeved army shirt and the rifle which is always with him, even though battles seem now to be over for them.

Michael Ondaatje Quote: “He had approached the villa on that night of the storm not out of curiosity about the music but because of a danger to the piano player.
