What I think about the characters

The book, The English Patient, does a great job at allowing the reader to connect with the characters in the book. After reading the book for a week, it has become apparent that each character in the book has been well developed with his/her unique traits. For example Hana, the nurse, has been through so much pain and suffering that she no longer wants to form attachments with other people. And Caravaggio, the spy, despite being rational on the outside, the loss of his thumbs and his feeling of vengeance have clearly altered his way of thinking and the way he views life. I enjoy book that have many characters and I like how this book continues to add new characters to keep the reader interested. I'm excited to see if any more characters will be revealed as the book continues in chapter four.
