The English Patient: Winner of the Golden Man Booker Prize
Michael Ondaatje
Winner of the Man Booker Prize 1992 and winner of the Golden Man Booker Prize - the special 50th anniversary one-off award celebrating the best work of fiction from the last five decades of the prize! - The final curtain is closing on the Second World War and in an abandoned Italian village 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. The 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.
