The English Patient is Michael Ondaatje's masterpiece, which violates 15 China Booker Prize for Readers. The novel was adapted into a movie of the same name, and 1996 won 9 Oscars and became a world classic business card. Michael Ondaatje wrote a "spiritual pastoral" with a beautiful lyrical style at the end of World War II, which was gradually far away from the war and full of hazy poetry. He described these intertwined stories from different angles, centering on the identity of the "patient" in Britain. After the war, they lived in a paradise-like landscape, but they did not enjoy the peace and tranquility brought by the end of the war. One can escape from reality, but not from reality. Everyone is equal and lives and works in peace and contentment. People can go to a physical shelter, but if they can't get rid of the spiritual shackles, they will eventually go to despair and death.
