In the final days of World War II, in an abandoned Italian villa, four damaged lives intertwine. Hana, a nurse consumed by death, dedicates herself to caring for her last patient. Caravaggio, a thief, seeks to rebuild his identity after losing his hands. Kip, an Indian mine tracker, seeks safety in a dangerous landscape. At the center of this labyrinth is the English patient, a nameless man, an enigma that challenges those around him, whose memories of betrayal, pain, and redemption illuminate the novel. Winner of the Golden Man Booker Prize 2018, this novel is a profound reflection on love, loss, and identity in times of war.
Philip Michael Ondaatje is a Ceylon-born Canadian poet, fiction writer and essayist.
