In the Skin of a Lion

1. In the Skin of a Lion

1. In the Skin of a Lion begins with two quotes. Examine the quote by John Berger, “Never again will a single story be told as though it were the only one.” Discuss this quote as it relates to both the novel and to Chimamanda Adichie’s TED Talk.

Note: A complete answer will refer to the examples Chimamanda Adichie uses in her talk and discuss the single story that Ondaatje attempts to shatter in the telling of his novel.
