| I found the premise interesting, but the story was a bit clunky. The way Brennert attempted to weave historical events into the story didn't always (or ever) feel natural. Sometimes I wondered about the point of some of the events included or where t...more | |

| While the pace of this novel is slower, as classic fiction often is, and the themes subtle, I got where Ishiguro was going with all of Steven's philosophical wanderings and was never discouraged. What Stevens is really asking with "was I good butler?...more | |

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
