Klara and the Sun [图书] 豆瓣
Klara and the Sun, the first novel by Kazuo Ishiguro since he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, tells the story of Klara, an Artificial Friend with outstanding observational qualities, who, from her place in the store, watches carefully the behavior of those who come in to browse, and of those who pass on the street outside. She remains hopeful that a customer will soon choose her.
Klara and the Sun is a thrilling book that offers a look at our changing world through the eyes of an unforgettable narrator, and one that explores the fundamental question: what does it mean to love?
In its award citation in 2017, the Nobel committee described Ishiguro's books as "novels of great emotional force" and said he has "uncovered the abyss beneath our illusory sense of connection with the world."

*Kazuo Ishiguro's new novel Klara and the Sun is now available*
Kazuo Ishiguro's highly acclaimed debut, first published in 1982, tells the story of Etsuko, a Japanese woman now living alone in England, dwelling on the recent suicide of her daughter.
Retreating into the past, she finds herself reliving one particular hot summer in Nagasaki, when she and her friends struggled to rebuild their lives after the war. But then as she recalls her strange friendship with Sachiko - a wealthy woman reduced to vagrancy - the memories take on a disturbing cast.
'A macabre and faultlessly worked enigma.' Sunday Times
'One of the outstanding fictional debuts of recent years.' Observer
'A delicate, ironic, elliptical novel . Its characters are remarkably convincing . but what one remembers is its balance, halfway between elegy and irony.' New York Times Book Review
'An extraordinarily fine first novel . its themes are deceptively large and uncommonly haunting.' Los Angeles Times

The Remains of the Day [图书] 豆瓣
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.

BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • From the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, here is “an intricate and dazzling novel” (The New York Times) about the perfect butler and his fading, insular world in post-World War II England.
This is Kazuo Ishiguro's profoundly compelling portrait of a butler named Stevens. 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.

小夜曲——音乐与黄昏五故事集 [图书] Goodreads
From the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature and author of the Booker Prize–winning novel The Remains of the Day comes an inspired sequence of stories as affecting as it is beautiful.
With the clarity and precision that have become his trademarks, Kazuo Ishiguro interlocks five short pieces of fiction to create a world that resonates with emotion, heartbreak, and humor. Here is a fragile, once famous singer, turning his back on the one thing he loves; a music junky with little else to offer his friends but opinion; a songwriter who inadvertently breaks up a marriage; a jazz musician who thinks the answer to his career lies in changing his physical appearance; and a young cellist whose tutor has devised a remarkable way to foster his talent. For each, music is a central part of their lives and, in one way or another, delivers them to an epiphany.

An extraordinary new novel from the author of Never Let Me Go and the Booker Prize-winning The Remains of the Day .
"You've long set your heart against it, Axl, I know. But it's time now to think on it anew. There's a journey we must go on, and no more delay..."
The Romans have long since departed, and Britain is steadily declining into ruin. But at least the wars that once ravaged the country have ceased. The Buried Giant begins as a couple, Axl and Beatrice, set off across a troubled land of mist and rain in the hope of finding a son they have not seen for years.
They expect to face many hazards — some strange and other-worldly — but they cannot yet foresee how their journey will reveal to them dark and forgotten corners of their love for one another.
Sometimes savage, often intensely moving, Kazuo Ishiguro's first novel in a decade is about lost memories, love, revenge and war.

قهرمانهای داستان كتاب غول مدفون «اكسل» و «بيئتريس»، زوج كهنسالی هستند كه برای پيدا كردن پسر گمشدهشان راهی سفر میشوند. اين سفر در بريتانيای قديم رخ میدهد. زمانی كه ساكسونها و برايتونها پس از جنگی خانمانسوز در صلحی شكننده زندگی میكنند. صلحی كه حاصل توافق يك فراموشی است. يك فراموشی همهگير كه به شكل مه در كل سرزمين پخش شده است. اين مه به خاطر نفس يك اژدهاست و خاطرهی جنگ، عشق و نفرت و خونخواهی را از ياد مردم برده. «اكسل» و «بيئتريس» در طول سفرشان با آدمهای جديدی روبهرو میشوند. يك جنگجوی جوان ساكسون را میبينند كه دنبال مادرش میگردد و نيز افراد ديگر كه در داستان به تفصيل آمده. غول مدفون همان رازی است كه آرام آرام گشوده و به نتيجهی نامنتظرهای ختم میشود. در آخر، هيبت غول به كل جلوی چشمان خواننده قرار میگيرد و اينجاست كه مخاطب عظمت آن را درك میكند و میفهمد اصلاً و برای چه اين غول در ابتدای داستان دفن شده است. شيوهی بازگويی اين راز، اوج هنر نويسنده در خلق جهانی شناور است و در نهايت خواننده با پرسش اصلی روبهرو میشود: آيا بايد گذشته را فراموش كرد تا به آرامش رسيد؟ در رمان «ايشیگورو» عشق بر همه چيز چيره میشود الا مرگ.
روزنامهی «گاردين» اين رمان را به عنوان مهمترين رمان سال ۲۰۱۵ انتخاب كرده است. «موراكامی» نويسنده و منتقد معروف ژاپنی دربارهی «ايشیگورو» میگويد: «هر يك از كارهای اين نويسنده جديد است و هر بار كه كتابی تازه از او به چاپ میرسد با عجله خودم را به كتابفروشی میرسانم.»

The Remains of the Day [图书] 谷歌图书
Kazuo Ishiguro's Booker Prize-winning masterpiece became an international bestseller on publication, was adapted into an award-winning film, and has since come to be regarded as a modern classic.
The Remains of the Day is a spellbinding portrayal of a vanished way of life and a haunting meditation on the high cost of duty. It is also one of the most subtle, sad and humorous love stories ever written. It is the summer of 1956, when Stevens, a man who has dedicated himself to his career as a perfect butler in the one-time great house of Darlington Hall, sets off on a holiday that will take him deep into the English countryside and, unexpectedly, into his own past, especially his friendship with the housekeeper, Miss Kenton. As memories surface of his lifetime "in service" to Lord Darlington, and of his life between the wars, when the fate of the continent seemed to lie in the hands of a few men, he finds himself confronting the dark undercurrent beneath the carefully run world of his employer.
