Overview
Commentary

Publisher's Notes
If Michael Ondaatje's novels have the compression and imagistic power of poetry, his poems often read like narratives that have been pared down to their mysterious essence. The poems that have been brought together in this electrifying volume are stylish yet endlessly surprising explorations of friendship and passion, family history and personal mythology.

Spanning twenty-seven years and representing the best poems from Ondaatje's hard-to-find earlier collections, THE CINNAMON PEELER is a masterpiece of intelligence and ardor, informed by rueful wit, sensitivity to nature, and an exultant love of language.

Reviews
"Michael Ondaatje's poems read with the same whimsical precision and authority one finds in his prose. He is the most sensible ironic writer I've read in years, and the most generously disposed. Would that all worlds were this deftly attended."

Robert Creeley
