Abstract
In Anil's Ghost, Michael Ondaatje turns to alternative models of causality to explore the horrors of the Sri Lankan emergency, confounding the Western model of cause and effect with a narrative of events whose non-linear logic amounts to effect without cause. The presence of Buddhism in the novel allows Ondaatje to negotiate between postmodernist relativism and epiphanic insight into universal truths. Ondaatje's use of the Buddhist vision of the endless process of becoming and extinction, making dissolution paradoxically the principle of a higher form of cohesion, allows for a view of the world that includes a sense of fragmentation and the relativity of cultural truths.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
