Kazuo Ishiguro wins Nobel literature prize
-
Really great to hear that such a talented writer is being recognised. Remains of the day is definitely worth reading and if you want a dystopian novel on human relationships then Never let me go is a great read too if a bit dark.

Interesting. I've been making my way slowly through Ishiguro's The Buried Giant - amazon[^] over a few weeks. It is so interesting because it is written like a Tolkien fantasy yet there is another story underneath which I haven't figured out yet. It is some of the best fiction writing I've read in a long time, interesting compelling story where every sentence is necessary and plainly written. Really great, you should give it a read some time.

Thanks for the recommendation - I will get it for my kindle.

Never Let Me Go is such a worthwhile read.
