    This item arrived as described and on time. I gave the four star rating because I think it was banged up a bit in shipping (envelope type package with bubble wrap) and maybe should have been put in a box with bubble wrap. My son is giving this to his new wife on their wedding day so I didn't want to chance sending it back since it was the only new version I could find online for him. I think she'll love it anyway. Overall, I'd say I'm really pleased though and would recommend this seller.

    Wrong item sent by mistake, but the seller replied promptly with a return label and issued a refund. I appreciated the seller's responsiveness, and would order from him again.

    Perfect title

    Not for everyone. Spoiler Alert. An intensive study about a very inwardly deficient man who bases his life on pretty much one rule of the “the perfect quality” one should strive for to attain the true and proper way of conducting ones life, sadly excluding all else that may contribute to happiness in his life. Leaving him much hollowness to overcome in the later years of his life.

  • A marvellous master piece!

    Ishiguro is one of the finest writers of the century. His mastery of the English life and his mastery over the English language are unparalleled. He has a poetic approach to things even when writing about the concrete actualities of life.

  • Great price

    The books are in great condition for being used. I expected stickers, folded pages, writing, and such, but the books weren’t even really at that level of use. Plus I was able to get 3/4 of the books I was looking for here, so the selection was awesome.

  • Short and Compelling

    A very interesting read. What on the surface seems to be a simple story actually touches a lot of life's philosophical issues.
