Kazuo Ishiguro4/5 stars
In post-World War II Japan, Masuji Ono, an ageing painter, looks back on the years of his career before and during the war. The novel is written as a conversation with the reader, and Ono wanders from subject to subject, revealing more than he realizes. The reader, desirous to find what Ono is hiding, will eagerly consume this novel. Ishiguro is an excellent writer, and this is written with charm and perception.
