  A guide to the life and work of the author of The Remains of the Day . It reveals Ishiguro's novels to be intricately crafted, psychologically absorbing, hauntingly evocative works that betray the author's grounding not only in the literature of Japan but also in the 20th-century British and Irish masters - Joseph Conrad and Ford Madox Ford.
