Michael Ondaatje’s stunning novel takes place during the final moments of the Second World War. It explores the lives of four people who come together in a damaged villa in Tuscany as the war retreats around a young Canadian nurse; an enigmatic thief whose skills have made him one of the war’s heroes as well as one of its casualties; a Sikh soldier in the British army; and the English patient, who lies badly burned in an upstairs room. It is his adventures and turbulent love affair in the North African desert before the war, gradually uncovered, that become the centre around which these people’s past and present lives unfold.
Set mainly in Italy, this is a breathtaking story of love and passion that arcs back in time to Canada, to London during the Blitz and the intricacies of bomb disposal, and to the mysterious, often dangerous world of desert exploration.
Michael Ondaatje brings his formidable poetic and narrative powers to bear on the destiny of his characters. In luminous prose, he reveals the complex impact of public conflict on private lives.

评分The English Patient的中译本《英国病人》(作家出版社1997年5月北京第1版,章欣、庆信译)我闻名已久,但十年前的书较难找,最近在豆瓣网上讨价还价后花了人民币50元(原价人民币13.8元,这位网友居然索价人民币80元)终于拿到一本二手旧书。 我枕边原有一册Bloomsburry的199...
很刻骨的,描写。关于战争
评分每个场景都像梦和诗一样。行文开始不大习惯,之后变得不可自拔。
评分难得让我爱不释手的小说
评分All I desired was to walk upon such an earth that had no maps.翁达杰的语言和伍尔芙相近,诗般的呓语和压制的悲痛,最喜欢英国病人的故事,it's a love story that has no clear beginning in time or space. PS: 我看正经书的速度要能有看闲书速度那么快就好了。
