Description
With ravishing beauty and unsettling intelligence, Michael Ondaatje's Booker Prize-winning novel traces the intersection of four damaged lives in an Italian villa during World War II. The English patient, an injured spy, is tended by Hana, a nurse with a heart for adventure; Caravaggio, a thief with a heart for love; and Kip, a sapper with a heart for discovery.
