The English Patient

AR14c-Y1716Hardcover

  • Subject : Novels
  • Author : Michael Ondaatje
  • ISBN : 9789948247630
  • Year : 2019

Four people converge in an Italian villa during World War II. The nurse Hana, exhausted by death, obsessively tends to her last surviving patient. Caravaggio, the thief, tries to reimagine who he is, now that his hands are hopelessly maimed. The Indian sapper Kip searches for hidden bombs in a landscape where nothing is safe but himself. And at the center of his labyrinth lies the English patient, nameless and hideously burned, a man who is both a riddle and a provocation to his companions—and whose memories of suffering, rescue, and betrayal illuminate this book like flashes of heat lightning.  Winner of the 1992 Booker Prize and the 2018 Golden Man Booker Prize.
