The Remains of the Day is a profoundly compelling portrait of the perfect English butler and of his fading, insular world postwar England. At the end of his three decades of service at Darlington Hall, Stevens embarks on a country drive, during which he looks back over his career to reassure himself that he has served humanity by serving ;a great gentleman. ; But lurking in his memory are doubts about the true nature of Lord Darlington's ;greatness ; and graver doubts about his own faith in the man he served. A tragic, spiritual portrait of a perfect English butler and his reaction to his fading insular world in post-war England. A wonderful, wonderful book.

太好哭了。题材情节什么的本来根本不是我的菜,叙事风格也是拐弯抹角、毫无波澜。但是最后“老相好”重逢,轻描淡写地带过一个可能的更幸福的人生,突然就get了石黑君平淡叙事下蕴藏的巨大情感力量;而这种力量又因为由云淡风轻的笔触传递出来更加震慑人心。由此我想到自己一直是个不快乐的人,怎么改变呢?好像无法改变,除了生活的一地鸡毛,我最深的不快乐还是来源于隐约领会到的人在时间空间中的无力感。这一地鸡毛不过是这... 太好哭了。题材情节什么的本来根本不是我的菜,叙事风格也是拐弯抹角、毫无波澜。但是最后“老相好”重逢,轻描淡写地带过一个可能的更幸福的人生,突然就get了石黑君平淡叙事下蕴藏的巨大情感力量;而这种力量又因为由云淡风轻的笔触传递出来更加震慑人心。由此我想到自己一直是个不快乐的人,怎么改变呢?好像无法改变,除了生活的一地鸡毛,我最深的不快乐还是来源于隐约领会到的人在时间空间中的无力感。这一地鸡毛不过是这种终极无力感在日常琐事中的掠影而已,就像海明威那埋在海水下的9/10的冰山一样。而《长日将尽》正是巧妙地把这种隐约的难以名状的感受传达了出来。 (展开)

英国的管家一板一眼, 努力了一辈子为的就是我们看来鸡毛蒜皮的事 - 闪亮的刀叉, 透明的玻璃杯。 到了晚年, 发现remains of the day时间不多了, 怎能不感慨。

这种满满的britain-centric的酸腐气息实在太浓了……

一个不会让你哭但会让你觉得隐隐做痛很久的故事,越咂摸越觉得苦,难过,不值得。石黑一雄的文字啊,真的太好了

和never let me go以及klara and the sun一样都是读着读着细思极恐/悲…作者真的很会非常自然、缓慢地build up情绪然后爆发…最后的结尾那么短但是又带来慰藉

克己 压抑了一辈子 追求所谓的荣誉 尊严 忠诚 到最后发现都是虚的 所有真实又强烈的感情都在克制中错过了 遗憾吗 那就遗憾着吧 把你破碎的心重重拿起再轻轻放下 长日将尽了

石黑一雄的文笔克制内敛却颇有韵味,近乎碎碎念的前半程没有太多情节却读得人欲罢不能,而后半程展开后,作者探究了更多值得深思的话题:全球权力结构的剧变,普通人与政治之间的关系,个人在生活中的位置以及尊严的含义,夹杂着Stevens和Kenton之间若即若离的情愫,淡淡的感伤和无法言说的失落萦绕在字里行间,道出一个日不落帝国最后的荣光和时代变迁下传统生活方式的最后挣扎。
