This book is always unfavorably and, I think, unfairly compared to The English Patient. The latter is considered more poetic, more beautiful. I disagree completely. I thought Anil's Ghost was a gorgeous book. I read it right after The God of Small Things (another perfect work), and I felt that they spoke to each other. Aside from the stunning imagery and tight prose, this is a great lesson on Sri Lanka.
