The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro

featuring Gerald J. Postema, Cary C. Boshamer Professor of Philosophy and Professor of Law Emeritus

“‘The Remains of the Day is a dream of a book: a beguiling comedy of manners that evolves almost magically into a profound and heart-rending study of personality, class and culture.”
—The New York Times

“We get a picture of a man trying desperately to keep a lid on his emotions – and what a complete picture it is. The Remains of the Day does that most wonderful thing a work of literature can do: it makes you feel you hold a human life in your hands.”
—The Guardian

“A tour de force–both a compelling psychological study and a portrait of a vanished social order.”
—Publishers Weekly
