Michael Ondaatje to Sign 'Divisadero' at Borders(R) on Liberty in Ann Arbor

 ANN ARBOR, Mich., June 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --    Who:      Michael Ondaatje is a best-selling writer whose work is a             stunning fusion of jazz rhythms, film montage technique and             profoundly beautiful language. Although he is best known as a             novelist, Ondaatje's work also encompasses memoir, poetry, and             film and reveals a passion for defying conventional form. His             debut novel, "The English Patient," was a 1996 Academy Award(R)-             winning movie. Ondaatje's first book in nearly seven years is             entitled, "Divisadero." He and his wife live in Toronto.
