The Remains of the Day Condition:Well Read The spur-of-the moment decision toThe Remains of the Day won the 1989 Booker Prize and cemented Kazuo Ishiguro's place as one of the world's greatest writers. David Lodge, chairman of the judges in 1989, called it 'a cunningly structured and beautifully paced performance.'
