石黑一雄的長日將盡(The Remains of The Day)其實是大英帝國貴族統治階級沒落的一首輓歌,含蓄而隱隱作痛。石黑巧妙地藉著英國貴族僕役長的回想,探討二次世界大戰對英國的影響:貴族統治的沒落,新富階級的興起。本書中譯本由皇冠出版。
From the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, here is the universally acclaimed novel--winner of the Booker Prize and the basis for an award-winning film. This is Kazuo Ishiguro''s profoundly compelling portrait of Stevens, the perfect butler, and of his fading, insular world in post-World War II England. Stevens, at the end of three decades of service at Darlington Hall, spending a day on a country drive, embarks as well on a journey through the past in an effort to reassure himself that he has served humanity by serving the "great gentleman," Lord Darlington. But lurking in his memory are doubts about the true nature of Lord Darlington''s "greatness," and much graver doubts about the nature of his own life.
