Description
Japanese-born, Nobel Prize-winning author Kazuo Ishiguro is recognized as one of Britain's leading writers. Readers savor Ishiguro's beautiful prose, and his mastery of tone, setting, and characterization. His novels are complex and evocative, usually presenting readers with the picture of a life-paths taken and not, and the self-revelation of memory and introspection. Dignity and order (and the deception humans use to maintain them) are the prevailing themes in his world, where "What is stated is less important than what is left unsaid." Start with: The Remains of the Day
