4. The Remains of the Day] – Kazuo Ishiguro

Genre: historical fiction

Rating: Good

The story of one man’s life as a butler during the run-up to World War II.

I’m unsure what to say about this book. Beautifully written, but depressing and rather hopeless. Talk about living your life through others and letting them be your conscience and your guide.  But he certainly maintains his dignity throughout.
