Hana, a nurse, tends to her sole remaining patient. Rescued from a burning plane, the anonymous Englishman is damaged beyond recognition and haunted by painful memories. \nThe only clue Hana has to unlocking his past is the one thing he clung on to through the fire - a copy of The Histories by Herodotus, covered with hand-written notes detailing a tragic love affair.\n\n\nCríticas\n\n\nThe English Patient wears the triple crown: it is profound, beautiful and heart-quickening (Toni Morrison)\n\nAll the allure of early twentieth-century desert exploration is contained in Ondaatje's beautiful, spare narrative .

It is such a thought-provoking piece of writing that one if forced to consider its achievement (\nDaily Telegraph)\n\nAn exotic, consuming and richly inspired novel of passion. In its elegance and its satisfactions it resembles no book I know (Richard Ford)\n\nFeats of daring espionage, aeroplanes mysteriously buried beneath desert sand, archaeological exploration in the Sahara and nail-biting accounts of bomb-disposal against a nervous clock . this is the real thing: muscular, resonant, alive (\nSpectator)\n\nIn descriptive prose of spectacular beauty, he invents a desert world which is both physical and imaginative. This is one of the few truly great post-war novels (\nIrish Times)\n\n\nBiografía del autor\n\n\nMichael Ondaatje\n is the author of several novels, as well as a memoir, a non-fiction book on film, and several books of poetry.
