Terrible. I didnt like this at all. I guess I dont appreciate this style of writing. I know the basics. Four people in a bombed out Italian Villa. They are a nurse, a thief, a sapper and the English Patient. The book is about them towards the end of the war and how they are dealing with loss, death, destruction and their lives. Thats about all I got from this. This book did not flow nicely at all. It was sparatic. One of the worst books I ever read. And I feel bad about that. I thought I was going to like it.
