长日将尽 | The Remains of the Day by Kazuo Ishiguro

《长日将尽》是诺奖得主石黑一雄1989年获布克奖的作品，也是石黑一雄最重要的代表作。小说以管家史蒂文斯的回忆展开，讲述了自己为达林顿勋爵服务的三十余年时光里的种种经历；虽然达到了职业巅峰，但史蒂文斯过于冷酷地压抑自我情感，追求完美履行职责，而在父亲临终前错过最后一面，之后又与爱情擦肩而过。小说通过主人公的回忆，将一个人的生命旅程在读者眼前抽丝剥茧，同时也折射出一战与二战之间那段非常时期的国际政治格局。

In the summer of 1956, Stevens, a long-serving butler at Darlington Hall, decides to take a motoring trip through the West Country. The six-day excursion becomes a journey into the past of Stevens and England, a past that takes in fascism, two world wars, and an unrealised love between the butler and his housekeeper.文章源自：力哥爱英语（ienglish521.com）力哥爱英语-https://ienglish521.com/772.html
