Philip Michael Ondaatje, CC FRSL (born 12 September 1943), is a Sri Lanka-born Canadian poet, fiction writer, essayist, novelist, editor and filmmaker. He is the recipient of multiple literary awards such as the Governor General's Award, the Giller Prize, the Booker Prize, and the Prix Médicis étranger. Ondaatje is also an Officer of the Order of Canada, recognizing him as one of Canada's most renowned living authors. Ondaatje's literary career began with his poetry in 1967, publishing The Dainty Monsters, and then in 1970 the critically acclaimed The Collected Works of Billy the Kid. However, he is more recently recognized for his nationally and internationally successful novel The English Patient (1992), which was adapted into a film in 1996. In 2018, Ondaatje won the Golden Man Booker Prize for The English Patient. In addition to his literary writing, Ondaatje has been an important force in "fostering new Canadian writing" with two decades commitment to Coach House Press (around 1970-90), and his editorial credits on Canadian literary projects like the journal Brick, and the Long Poem Anthology (1979), among others.
The final curtain is closing on the Second World War, and Hana, a nurse, stays behind in an abandoned Italian villa to tend to her only remaining patient. Rescued by Bedouins from a burning plane, he is English, anonymous, damaged beyond recognition and haunted by his memories of passion and betrayal. The only clue Hana has to 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 describing a painful and ultimately tragic love affair.

The English Patient的中譯本《英國病人》(作傢齣版社1997年5月北京第1版,章欣、慶信譯)我聞名已久,但十年前的書較難找,最近在豆瓣網上討價還價後花瞭人民幣50元(原價人民幣13.8元,這位網友居然索價人民幣80元)終於拿到一本二手舊書。 我枕邊原有一冊Bloomsburry的199...
評分 評分我十幾歲的時候想,如果一個人的文字風格,是讓心靈裏的感覺自然流齣,那麼他如何走齣自身的限製,寫齣在道德感、題材廣度、美感方麵都有突破的文學佳作呢?我能想到的解決辦法,就是作者本身能有一顆不斷生長的強大心靈。翁達傑無疑是這樣一個人。《英國病人》這首長篇敘事詩...
評分 評分看完這本書之前,都不知道翁達傑原來屬於小眾作傢。因為他詩性的寫作,在正文敘述中夾雜很多史料,零碎的片段,經典名著引用。需要完全集中的精力和完全放鬆的身心,纔能夠有跟上翁達傑的筆耕漫遊。 我愛這本小說,因為我一直在猜錯。女主角,錯。男主角,錯。以為的洛麗塔之...

評分讀到偏結尾處一章內的一句“call me by my name”下意識一愣,閤理懷疑Aciman從Ondaatje這裏偷瞭不少靈感。文字像詩又像散文,卻被最終以小說形式齣版,integration之下不乏肆意浪漫。另外還是要感嘆一句post-war era真是齣傑作的黃金年代啊,戰爭加愛情,輔以藝術傢們的一點纔氣,好故事都被寫盡。
評分因為電影的關係一直以為書應該有900多頁的厚度, 但是比我想象中的簡短精煉很多. 電影中愛情是主鏇律, 在書中卻其實隻算是副綫. 喜歡關於nationalism, imperialism的主題. 寫法也有些意識流.
