Michael Ondaatje's Booker Prize-winning best seller lyrically
portrays the convergence of four damaged lives in a bomb-riddled
Italian villa in the last days of the war. Hana, the grieving
nurse; the maimed thief, Caravaggio; the emotionally detached
Indian sapper, Kip--each is haunted in different ways by the riddle
of the man they know only as the English patient, a nameless burn
victim who lies swathed in bandages in an upstairs room. It is this
man's incandescent memories--of the bleak North African desert, of
explorers' caves and Bedouin tribesmen,
of forbidden love, and of annihilating anger--that illuminate the
story, and the consequences of the mysteries they reveal radiate
outward in shock waves that leave all the characters forever
changed.
