The dystopian story it tells, meanwhile, gives it a different kind of electric charge. . . . An epic ethical horror story, told in devastatingly poignant miniature. . . . Ishiguro spins a stinging cautionary tale of science outpacing ethics." -Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Perfect pacing and infinite subtlety. . . . That this stunningly brilliant fiction echoes Caryl Churchill's superb play A Number and Margaret Atwood's celebrated dystopian novels in no way diminishes its originality and power. A masterpiece of craftsmanship that offers an unparalleled emotional experience. Send a copy to the Swedish Academy." -Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Elegiac, compelling, otherworldly, deeply disturbing and profoundly moving." -Sunday Herald (UK) "Brilliant . . . Ishiguro's most profound statement of the endurance of human relationships. . . . The most exact and affecting of his books to date." -The Guardian (UK) "Ishiguro's elegant prose and masterly ways with characterization make for a lovely tale of memory, self-understanding, and love." -Library Journal (starred review) "Ishiguro's provocative subject matter and taut, potent prose have earned him multiple literary decorations, including the French government's Chevalier dans l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres and an Order of the British Empire for service to literature…. In this luminous offering, he nimbly navigates the landscape of emotion - the inevitable link between present and past and the fine line between compassion and cruelty, pleasure and pain." -Booklist Praise for Kazuo Ishiguro: "His books are Zen gardens with no flowery metaphors, no wild, untamed weeds threatening - or allowed - to overrun the plot." -The Globe and Mail "A writer of Ishiguro's intelligence, sensitivity and stylistic brilliance obviously offers rewards." -The Gazette (Montreal) "Kazuo Ishiguro distinguishes himself as one of our most eloquent poets of loss." -Joyce Carol Oates, TLS "Ishiguro is a stylist like no other, a writer who knows that the truth is often unspoken." -Maclean's "One of the finest prose stylists of our time." -Michael Ondaatje "Ishiguro shows immense tenderness for his characters, however absurd or deluded they may be." -The Guardian "[Ishiguro is] an original and remarkable genius." -The New York Times Book Review From the Hardcover edition., "A page turner and a heartbreaker, a tour de force of knotted tension and buried anguish." -- Time "A Gothic tour de force. . . .
