The English Patient

A Canadian young nurse, a Sikh bomb expert, a thief turned into a spy, a man burned beyond recognition and burned at the last moment of the Second World War. The patient's identity is at the heart of this story, as he tells his memory of the fate of love in the desert in North Africa. Canadian writer Michael Ondaatje opposed the destruction of war in this inspiring novel full of love and passion. As the progress of the novel slowly reveals the identity of British patients, the inner self and spiritual identity of the other characters in the novel are the same.

Before British patients suffered burns, he lost memory in an Italian hospital, he was an explorer of the Sahara and met Catherine, the other male's wife. Michael Ondaatje's core historical novel masterpiece is this passionate event when Katherine's husband Jeffrey attempted suicide by three people. This event ended with a drama that draws attention. British patients and Catherine survived and looked for evacuation centers in the cave. When a patient in the UK departed for help, Katherine disappeared in the cold and responded to the dark, so I wrote the last goodbye.

All personality of "British patient" is bound by love and loss, absence, desire. Katharine Clifton's death formed a terrible secret in the memory of British patients, and a novelistic intrusion ruled by her terrible absence in the center of the pattern. In their marriage relationship, a series of short, intense, almost illusive scenes, soul flames burnestest brightest. But her death turned into a real fire, burning all the traces of her lover's identity and making him an anonymous patient in a British hospital. This anonymity, loss of this will (or counterfeit) identity fulfills his already conscious desire.

After spending 10 years in the desert, a patient in the UK became a shadow of his former self. Of course, he is still very smart and enthusiastic; however, most of his own was lost. The British patient himself said, "... in the desert sky, you are always surrounded by a lost history" (135; Chapter 4). He refers to many nomadic tribes crossing the area, but it also applies to burned planes and ruins of Clifton and Katherine, which have been lost forever in history. In other words, few people listen to their story. Everything that a UK patient experiences in the desert is short-lived compared to having difficulty finding adequate water. A patient in the UK says that the water is "a ghost between your hands and mouth" and noticed that "In the desert, nothing is celebrated except for water" (19; ch.1 | 23; ch.) It was. 1). This reinforces the idea that what is in the desert is not eternal, everything is worthwhile. . . Four).
