The Remains of the Day

Összefoglaló

The Remains of the Day is a profoundly compelling portrait ofthe perfect English butlcr and ofhis fading, inaular world in postwar England. At the end of his three decades of service at Darlington Hall, Stevens embarks on a country drive, during which he looks back over his career to reassure himself that he has served humanity by serving "a great gentleman." But lurking in his memory are doubts about the true nature of Lord Darlington's "greatness"and graver doubts about his own faith in the man he served.
