February book choice

Hi Every one

We will be reading Remains of the day by Kazuo Ishiguro for the February book club.

A compelling psychological study and a portrait of a vanished social order. Stevens, an elderly butler who has spent 30 years in the service of Lord Darlington, ruminates on the past and inadvertently slackens his rigid grip on his emotions to confront the central issues of his life. Glacially reserved, snobbish and humorless, Stevens has devoted his life to his concept of duty and responsibility, hoping to reach the pinnacle of his profession through totally selfless dedication and a ruthless suppression of sentiment.

looking forward to seeing you at the meeting on Monday the 7th at 7pm

Ellie
