Summary:Philip Michael Ondaatje is a great anti-colonial contemporary writer whose novels are mainly preoccupied with the life of the oppressed and the colonized who are suffering from the loss of true self and identity. The present study is an attempt to read Michael Ondaatje’s novels, In the Skin of a Lion and Anil's Ghost, under the light of W.E.B. Du Bois’s and Frantz Fanon’s theories of double consciousness.

Therefore, the researcher will apply concept of double conscious to depict the ways the colonized feel out of place in colonized society, how they are behaved, how they resist this situation and why the colonized wear mask and why they try to remove it aftermath.
