The Remains of the Day

<p> <b>*Kazuo Ishiguro's new novel <i>Klara and the Sun is </i>now available*</b> <br> <br> <b>WINNER OF THE BOOKER PRIZE</b> <br> <br> A contemporary classic, <i>The Remains of the Day</i> is Kazuo Ishiguro's beautiful and haunting evocation of life between the wars in a Great English House. <br> <br> In the summer of 1956, Stevens, the ageing butler of Darlington Hall, embarks on a leisurely holiday that will take him deep into the countryside and into his past. <br> <br> 'A triumph . . . This wholly convincing portrait of a human life unweaving before your eyes is inventive and absorbing, by turns funny, absurd and ultimately very moving.' <i>Sunday Times</i> <br> <br> 'A dream of a book: a beguiling comedy of manners that evolves almost magically into a profound and heart-rending study of personality, class and culture.' <i>New York TImes Book Review</i> </p>
