1948. Japan is rebuilding her cities after the calamity of WWII, her people putting defeat behind them and looking to the future.

The celebrated painter Masuji Ono fills his days attending to his garden, his house repairs, his two grown daughters and his grandson; his evenings drinking with old associates in quiet lantern-lit bars. His should be a tranquil retirement. But as his memories continually return to the past - to a life and a career deeply touched by the rise of Japanese militarism - a dark shadow begins to grow over his serenity.

The book strength of this (and all books of Ishiguro I have read) is the mood it evokes. Unfortunately, the speaker does it fit it at all, which made listening through it an absolute struggle. Do listen to the preview before buying - I would have left it.

Horrible choice for speaker

The story and writing is great, but I will prefer to read myself, as the speaker is impossible to listen to for me.

Great tory and writing, don't like speaker
