Condition: Wie neu. Lizenzausgabe des Carl Hanser Verlags. 313 (7) Seiten. 21,1 x 12,5 cm. Umschlaggestaltung und Layout: Eberhard Wolf. Umschlag: Szene aus der gleichnamigen Verfilmung mit Ralph Fiennes. Sehr guter Zustand. Frisches Exemplar. Wie ungelesen. Der englische Patient von Michael Ondaatje wurde weltberühmt durch die…Verfilmung von Anthony Minghella 1996, die mit insgesamt neun Oskars ausgezeichnet wurde. Inhalt: 1945 finden sich in den letzten Tagen des Zweiten Weltkriegs vier Menschen in einer zerbombten Villa in der Toskana ein, die zuvor den Alliierten als Lazarett gedient hatte. Nach deren Abzug blieb die 20-jährige kanadische Krankenschwesterm Hana mit einem nicht transportfähigen unbekannten englischen Patienten zurück, der bei einem Flugzeugabsturz in der Libyschen Wüste schwerste Verbrennungen erlitten hatte. Zu den beiden gesellt sich David Caravaggio, ein früherer Freund von Hanas Vater, der von ihrer Anwesenheit in der Villa gehört hatte und sie nun schützen will. Später stösst Kirpal Singh, genannt Kip, zu ihnen, ein Pionier der britischen Armee. Trotz des Zusammenlebens in der Villa bleibt jeder der vier mit seiner Vergangenheit und den Kriegstraumata allein. An den Abenden liest Hana dem englischen Patienten verschiedene Bücher aus der Bibliothek der Villa vor. Eine zentrale Rolle spielt ein altes Exemplar der Historien (entst. 445-430 v. Chr.) von Herodot, das der englische Patient auf wundersame Weise retten konnte. Das Buch ist eine Art Tagebuch des Patienten. Es enthält Briefe, Zeichnungen und persönliche Notizen und scheint somit der Schlüssel für seine Herkunft zu sein. Caravaggio vermutet, die wahre Identität des englischen Patienten zu kennen: Er ist der ungarische Graf Laszlo de Almasy. Caravaggio kann ihm unter Morphiumgabe seine wahre Identität als Spion der Deutschen entlocken, muss jedoch erkennen, dass der verbrannte Körper nicht mehr zur Rechenschaft gezogen werden kann. Das wahre Geheimnis des englischen Patienten war jedoch ein anderes: seine leidenschaftliche Liebe zu Katharine, der Frau eines britischen Kollegen. Das Ende des Romans knüpft an Herodot an: Beschreibt dieser in seinen Historien den Kampf der Perser gegen die Griechen, also die Auseinandersetzung Asiens mit Europa, so wendet auch der Inder Kip seinen Hass und seine Verzweiflung gegen die europäischen Bewohner der Villa, als er vom Abwurf der Atombomben auf Hiroshima und Nagasaki hört. Nachdem er in den vergangenen Jahren für die Alliierten tausende von Bomben entschärft hat, setzen diese nun die Atombombe gegen seinen Kontinent ein. Überstürzt kehrt er in seine Heimat zurück . Struktur: Mosaikartig setzt der Roman die Lebensgeschichten der vier Personen Stück für Stück zusammen. In der Rückblende erfährt der Leser nach und nach, was diese Menschen zu dem machte, was sie nun sind, und wie der Krieg jeden einzelnen von ihnen prägte. Das Vorleben von Hana und Caravaggio hatte Ondaatje in seinem Roman In der Haut eines Löwen (1987) beschrieben. - Michael Ondaatje (Aussprache [?n'd??t?i?], * 12. September 1943 in Colombo, Sri Lanka) ist ein kanadischer Schriftsteller und Dichter niederländisch-tamilisch-singhalesischer (Burgher) Herkunft. 1954 zog er mit seiner Mutter nach England und 1962 nach Kanada, wo er später die kanadische Staatsbürgerschaft annahm. Er ist der Bruder des Schriftstellers, Philanthropen, Abenteurers, ehemaligen Unternehmers und ehemaligen Teilnehmers an den Olympischen Spielen Christopher Ondaatje. Ondaatje erlangte den BA (Bachelor of Arts) an der Universität Toronto und den MA (Master of Arts) an der Queens University in Kingston (Ontario). Mitte der 1960er Jahre ließ er sich in Toronto nieder; von 1971 bis 1983 lehrte er an der York University und dann am Glendon College in Toronto. Am 8. November 1988 wurde ihm der Order of Canada, die höchste kanadische Auszeichnung, verliehen. Seine Romane bestehen aus Schnappschüssen von miteinander verbundenen Szenen, die er sprachlich äußerst detailreich erforscht. Insbesondere Ondaatjes frühe nicht oder nicht ausschließlich poetischen Werke The Collected Works of Billy the Kid und Coming Through Slaughter zeigen eine bild- und metaphernreiche Sprache, die stark von seiner Herkunft als Dichter geprägt ist. Ständige Wechsel der Erzählperspektive und -zeit sowie der Handlungsstränge prägen diese Werke noch stärker als Ondaatjes spätere Romane. Der Amor-Asteroid (6569) Ondaatje wurde nach ihm benannt. . . . Aus: wikipedia-Michael_Ondaatje.
