Two writers are tackled to explore identity through the healing power of love in this book. In Nathaniel Hawthorn's "The Scarlet Letter", love and hate appear as independent powers that consume their holders. It outlines the American's brief moment of theocracy and extreme social order. While Michael Ondaatje in his novel "The English patient" attempts to enact and represent a series of post national, borderless societies; by portraying an existence outside of tradition forms of family, class, and nation; by depicting scenes of communion between strangers; by trans passing the conventional structure of a novel and injecting it's language with poetry and vital imagery, Ondaatje succeeds in adding new flavor to war literature. When "In the Skin of a lion", he attempts to explore identity through focusing on those who are excluded such as the immigrants and the outsiders who feel lost and without identities in their world. He shows how the barriers of language, culture and beliefs hold these individuals back and imprison them in "the tunnels and the stockyards". The novel is a call to provide the opportunity for the once marginalized persons to stand and to be heard.
