A genius named Lisa Mirabile, a library sciences student at Simmons College in Boston, has produced a detailed index to Michael Ondaatje's the English Patient. The index itself is a treat:

lovers
  forgiveness granted to, 170
  English patient and Katharine become, 236
  Hana and Kip as, 125-130, 225-226

low-altitude bombs (dormant), 183

luck, role in Kip's safe defusion of Erith bomb, 193, 198

lyres played by Bedouin, 21-22

And the accompanying essay has some choice things to say about writers horrified by the idea that their works might be approached in some manner not officially approved.

(I must note, however, that Ms. Mirabile is incorrect on the subject of the vascular sizood.)
