When Jane, an aspiring writer, meets filmmaker John Bridges, they both want the same things: to be in love, to live a successful, creative life, and to be happy. When they marry, Jane believes she has found everything she was looking for, including—a few years later—all the attendant joys and labors of motherhood. But it’s not long until Jane finds herself subsumed by John’s ambitions, whims, and ego; in short, she becomes a wife.

Incredibly relatable even though totally different
Revisado: 12-01-24
After five days of finishing devouring her book in less then three days I'm still processing so much I've come to learn about myself from her excellent skills in describing her experiences and feelings. The book starts differently and also the narrator gives a lot of pauses (which I found very intimate and uncomfortable) but if you stick to it, you get to lift a dark cover above a lot of "us" whom are in a marriage institution which deceives the meaning of what it is to be a women after kids and yet still there is not much other way out. It touched something inside so profound! Very visceral.

This is Kazuo Ishiguro's profoundly compelling portrait of a butler named Stevens. Stevens, at the end of three decades of service at Darlington Hall, spending a day on a country drive, embarks as well on a journey through the past in an effort to reassure himself that he has served humanity by serving the "great gentleman," Lord Darlington. But lurking in his memory are doubts about the true nature of Lord Darlington's "greatness," and much graver doubts about the nature of his own life.

What a beautifully written marvel of story! Incredibly and truly one of a kind. The dominance of the language is so impressive, I have started reading it a second time right away.

You are a failed novelist about to turn 50. A wedding invitation arrives in the mail: Your boyfriend of the past nine years is engaged to someone else. You can't say yes - it would be too awkward - and you can't say no - it would look like defeat. On your desk are a series of invitations to half-baked literary events around the world. Question: How do you arrange to skip town? Answer: You accept them all.
