“We die containing a richness of lovers and tribes, tastes we have swallowed, bodies we have plunged into and swum up as if rivers of wisdom, characters we have climbed into as if trees, fears we have hidden in as if caves… We are communal histories, communal books. We are not owned or monogamous in our taste or experience.” – Michael Ondaatje,
