English 1057 The Remains of the Day (1988)

Kazuo Ishiguro (1954-) Father was an oceanographer Born in Nagasaki; moved to England at age five Educated in Kent, East Anglia First novel 1982; seven in total so far Feels he has a very “mixed” cultural identity which is neither strongly Japanese nor English

Themes in his novels Ishiguro’s novels tend to have a strong post-modern style Time is jumbled and narration cuts back and forth Things aren’t clear; reality is inconsistent and subjective Bad memories are repressed and denied but “bubble up” E.g. Etsuko’s repression of memory after the bombings of Nagasaki

The Remains of the Day (1989) Ishiguro’s third novel Highly regarded and praised; winner of the Man Booker Prize in 1989 Film adaption with Anthony Hopkins (1993)

Themes A butler’s “dignity” and social constraints Loyalty and politics: Stevens defends his (Nazi?) employer, Lord Darlington Love and duty: Stevens does not respond to Miss Kenton’s emotions or to his father Memory: Stevens remembers in fragments. Are these memories consistent? How do they change? Themes
