Muistin eksyttäviä ja upottavia polkuja seuraileva kertomus orvosta pojasta ja hänen suuresta tehtävästään. Kolmekymmenluvun Englannissa Christopher Banks on maan tunnetuimpia rikosetsiviä ja hänen tapauksensa ovat Lontoon seurapiirien puheenaiheina. Näyttää siltä kuin hänen suurin unelmansa olisi käynyt toteen: jo asuessaan poikana Shanghaissa hän leikki toverinsa Akiran kanssa salapoliisia. Mutta onko Christopherin ura sittenkään toiveiden täyttymys? Vai onko se vain yritys paikata säröä hänen elämässään, jonka sai aikaan vanhempien salaperäinen katoaminen Shanghaissa? Maailman ajautuessa kohti suursotaa Christopherista näyttää yhä tärkeämmältä, että katoamistapaus on saatava ratkaistuksi. Niinpä hän palaa Kaukoidän metropoliin, keskelle Kiinan ja Japanin välistä sotaa, suorittamaan tehtäväänsä. Hän tuntee kuitenkin saapuneensa outoon, mielettömään maailmaan, jota vääristää muukin kuin sota. Ja mitä kauemmin hän jatkaa etsintöjään, sitä arvoituksellisemmaksi ja unenomaisemmaksi kaikki käy. Käyttäen hyväkseen rikoskirjallisuuden keinoja Ishiguro luo romaanissaan koskettavan kuvan häiriintyneestä mielestä, ihmisestä joka ei pääse pakoon lapsuuden trauman pitkää varjoa. Ihmisen yksinäisyyttä, hänen orpouttaan, kirjailija kuvaa pakahduttavasti." Ishiguro on sukupolvensa paras ja omaperäisin romaanikirjailija, eikä Me orvot voisi olla kenenkään muun kirjoittama Se jää lähtemättömästi mieleen. Se liikuttaa kyyneliin." Mail on Sunday "Palkinto myönnetään Kazuo Ishigurolle, joka tunnevoimaisissa teoksissaan paljastaa kuilun sen illuusion takana, että voimme täysin ymmärtää tätä maailmaa."

*Kazuo Ishiguro's new novel Klara and the Sun is now available*In Nocturnes, Kazuo Ishiguro explores ideas of love, music and the passing of time. From the piazzas of Italy to the 'hush-hush floor' of an exclusive Hollywood Hotel, the characters we encounter range from young dreamers to cafe musicians to faded stars, all of them at some moment of reckoning. Gentle, intimate and witty, this quintet is marked by a haunting theme - the struggle to keep alive a sense of life's romance, even as one gets older, relationships founder and youthful hopes recede.'Each of these stories is heartbreaking in its own way, but some have moments of great comedy, and they all require a level of attention that, typically, Ishiguro's writing rewards.' Observer '[They] come up on you quietly, but then haunt you for days . These little pieces could only be the work of a great composer.' Evening Standard'A fine and moving collection of stories, displaying his unique combination of the sad, the stoic and the consoling. It's about failure, but it dignifies failure, and with it, the human condition.' Margaret Drabble, Guardian

*Kazuo Ishiguro's new novel Klara and the Sun is now available*Ryder, a renowned pianist, arrives in a Central European city he cannot identify for a concert he cannot remember agreeing to give . . . On first publication in 1995, The Unconsoled was met in some quarters with bewilderment and vilification, in others with the highest praise. One commentator asked, 'Has Ishiguro gone for greatness or has he gone mad?' Over the years, this uniquely strange and extraordinary novel about a man whose life has accelerated beyond his control has come to be seen by many as being the key work and a turning point in his career.'A masterpiece. It is above all a book devoted to the human heart.' Rachel Cusk, The Times'The most original and remarkable book he has so far produced.'

From the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature and author of the Booker Prize-winning novel The Remains of the Day comes this stunning work of soaring imagination. Born in early-twentieth-century Shanghai, Banks was orphaned at the age of nine after the separate disappearances of his parents. Now, more than twenty years later, he is a celebrated figure in London society; yet the investigative expertise that has garnered him fame has done little to illuminate the circumstances of his parents' alleged kidnappings. Banks travels to the seething, labyrinthine city of his memory in hopes of solving the mystery of his own, painful past, only to find that war is ravaging Shanghai beyond recognition-and that his own recollections are proving as difficult to trust as the people around him. Masterful, suspenseful and psychologically acute, When We Were Orphans offers a profound meditation on the shifting quality of memory, and the possibility of avenging one's past.

Ishiguron häikäisevä uutuus kysyy mitä on rakkaus, mitä ihmisyys. Lähitulevaisuuteen sijoittuva, ajatuksia herättävä Klara ja aurinko on kuin sisarteos suositulle Ole luonani aina -romaanille. Klara on keinotekoinen ystävä, älykäs robotti, joka on olemassa auttaakseen ja tukeakseen nuoria vaikeaksi muuttuneessa maailmassa. Se odottaa tulevaa omistajaansa kärsivällisesti näyteikkunassa ja tarkkailee ohi kulkevia ihmisiä oppiakseen heistä lisää. Kun Klara lopulta ostetaan tulevaan kotiinsa, se paneutuu auliisti rooliinsa, mutta ihmisyyden polut ovat mutkikkaat, eikä inhimillisiä motiiveja ole helppo tulkita. Kaikista julmimmaksi ja kirkkaimmaksi osoittautuu kuitenkin rakkaus.

Ishiguron vaikuttava nuoruudentyö kuvaa sodan varjoa, muistin häilyvyyttä ja ylisukupolvista traumaa Japanissa ja Englannissa. Etsuko on kauan sitten muuttanut Englantiin ja jättänyt taakseen nuoruutensa Japanin, mutta sodanjälkeisen Nagasakin jättämät muistot palaavat voimakkaina unikuvina, kun nuorin tytär alkaa esittää kysymyksiä. Etsuko palaa mielessään kuumaan kesään, jolloin hän odotti ensimmäistä tytärtään ja maailma oli suuressa murroksessa. Vanha sukupolvi oli menettänyt kaiken, uusi sukupolvi syntyi sodan jättämän säteilyn uhkaamana. Etsuko muistaa toisen naisen, ystävättären, ja tämän tyttären, vaaran tunteen, jännitteen. Mutta muistot eivät ole vakaita ja luotettavia, aika, menetykset ja pelko muokkaavat niitä. Tarina, jonka itsestämme kerromme, ei koskaan ole täysin oma. Silmissä siintävät vuoret heijastelee Kazuo Ishiguron äidin sukupolven kokemuksia ja tunteita. Siitä on tehty myös vuonna 2025 ensi-iltansa saanut elokuva.
