The English Patient by Michael Ondaatje
1.0
emotional reflective tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I strongly recommend reading this if you want a solid sample of how to do a multiple points of view narration style. This is however the only thing I can recommend it for.

I had to read this for a class. it deals with heavy subject matter including PTSD and war. I found myself really struggling through it.
