Product Information
In his highly acclaimed debut, A Pale View of Hills, Kazuo Ishiguro tells the story of Etsuko, a Japanese woman now living alone in England, dwelling on the recent suicide of her daughter. Retreating into the past, she finds herself reliving one particular hot summer in Nagasaki, when she and her friends struggled to rebuild their lives after the war.

A Pale View of Hills. A recollection of distant memory
An enigmatic narrative of the memories of a Japanese woman now living in Endland. She thinks back to events in Nagasaki which was being rebuilt after the war. But her memory is uncertain. Events are conflated and confused both in place person and time It makes for a surprisingly easy though unsettling read. With many unanswered questions.

bit of a vague plot
I made the mistake of buying this book as I had read Kazuo Ishiguro's latest book "The Buried Giant" first. The Buried Giant was excellent for me and I can only presume that he has improved through his other books. I will try another one sometime.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
