The Remains of the Day won the 1989 Booker Prize and cemented Kazuo Ishiguro's place as one of the world's greatest writers. David Lodge, chairman of the judges in 1989, said, it's 'a cunningly structured and beautifully paced performance'. This is a haunting evocation of lost causes and lost love, and an elegy for England at a time of acute change. Ishiguro's work has been translated into more than forty languages and has sold millions of copies worldwide.

Stevens, the long-serving butler of Darlington Hall, embarks on a leisurely holiday that will take him deep into the countryside, but also into his own past. Reflecting on his years of service, he must re-examine his life in the face of changing Britain, and question whether his dignity and properness have come at a greater cost to himself.

She said she was unhappy in a flimsy plight with nonchalance after leaving, nevertheless she had been falling in love with her husband gradually. You know his heart was broken then. He knew he should cease looking back and try to make the best of what remains of his day. Love was not always there waiting for anyone. The reality was not romantic.

起初误以为作者只是关注架构和手法，后来发现其实作者并没有惧怕面对困惑。在这方面，石黑一雄算勇敢的，虽然最终似乎也没有走得更深入使我这个读者有些遗憾，但依然有洞见在。a glimpse of futility, in a sort of positive way.
