"The Skin of a Lion" by Michael Ondaatje is a historical fiction novel set in Toronto during the early 20th century. It explores the lives of immigrants and their contributions to the city's development, focusing on themes of identity, love, and the hidden stories behind grand constructions.
I read this in a brilliant book called The Skin of a Lion by Michael Andache.
""The book "The Skin of a Lion" by Michael Ondaatje is mentioned directly as the source of a story about workers in dye pits in Toronto. It's relevant because the conversation is about difficult and unpleasant jobs throughout history."
