This novel is a masterpiece if your willing to get through the first half. This novel's writing relating to the characters is incredibly nuanced. It perfectly showed the reader how Mr. Stevens, (the main character's) ideology will ultimately cause him failure, while making him into a character that is able to be empathized with.
Graphic: Racism and Antisemitism
Moderate: Antisemitism and War
Minor: Racial slurs
