Opis i karakteristike
An elderly butler is on a fiveday motoring trip through the West Country in the 1950s. The climax of his journey is to be a reunion with his former housekeeper. This 1989 Booker Prizewinner attempts to capture a period in British history and draw a portrait of a man in old age.
The novel's narrator, Stevens, is a perfect English butler who tries to give his narrow existence form and meaning through the selfeffacing, almost mystical practice of his profession. In a career that spans the second world war, Stevens is oblivious of the real life that goes on around himoblivious, for instance, of the fact that his aristocrat employer is a Nazi sympathizer. Still, there are even larger matters at stake in this heartbreaking, beautifully crafted novel namely, Stevens' own ability to allow some bit of lifeaffirming love into his tightly repressed existence.
