The Remains of the Day is Kazuo Ishiguro's best-loved Booker Prize-winning novel. Issued into the launch list of Faber Modern Classics, publishing in April 2015.
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.
