Bringing together an unparalleled collection of interviews with the Booker Prize-winning author of "The Remains of the Day", this superb volume addresses Ishiguro's entire career and provides the most vivid portrait yet of the contexts and influences behind novels that have been garnering awards for a quarter of a century.The interviews focus mainly on the author's six novels, but also discuss his short fiction, screenplays, and the numerous film adaptations of his novels, as well as the writer's evolving understanding of himself, his Japanese heritage, and his use of English and Japanese history.Thoughtful, insightful, and often witty, "Conversations with Kazuo Ishiguro" is a must-read volume for anyone with an interest in this enigmatic author.It is a superb collection on interviews with the award-winning author of "The Remains of the Day" and "An Artist of the Floating World".
