Nice video... I'm new to Ishiguro and this one is definitely on my list.
Also: those cats in the background! Amazing!

The book has a lovely dust jacket.  "One man's beautiful prose is another man's flowery pile of garbage;" That's a great way to put it.  I'm the same way. When I pick up a book I always have to finish it, regardless of whether I like it or not.

I saw him speak about this book at my local bookstore and I was completely mesmerized by him but it sounds like the book did not do the same for you. I haven't read it yet but I hope to, by the end of the summer.

You've been caught in the mist with your review. So, I hated this book - somewhat irrationally I suppose because I adored Remains of the Day so much and how the first person narrative embodied the main character so completely. It was so well planned with intrigue, atmosphere, ethical considerations, well rounded characters. The Buried Giant had little of those attributes at least not to the level we know this author is capable of. This book - although having thoughtful themes and promise - was a big f you to his readers.
