sungyena 's review for:

The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro
2.0
emotional reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This was the literary equivalent of an old telling you their long boring story, seemingly dragging down time to the most glacial pace. Your time is better spent watching
"shaun of the dead". Admittedly beautiful prose and earnest intentions but ishiguro is just not for me!
