A review by rebeccadupont
The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro

4.0

A very subtle book and I think a case of a somewhat unreliable narrator; not because there was deception of the audience but because the narrator did not truly know himself. It was very interesting to read between the lines, the little things like him not even realizing he was crying while serving in the lounge or the way conversations with Miss Kenton got away from him and he did not even spare a thought on them. It was sad in multiple ways and certainly reminds me of Ishuguro's "Never Let Me Go." It's all about a missed or wasted life.
