The Remains of the Day is a poignant novel exploring memory, duty and regret. It follows Stevens, an aging English butler, who reflects on his life during a road trip. His unwavering dedication to service blinds him to personal desires, especially his feelings for Miss Kenton, a former housekeeper. Through restrained prose and subtle emotion, Ishiguro examines the cost of loyalty and the quiet tragedies of a life lived in self-denial.
