"...Not something that just holds peoples attention for a few hours, that's relatively easy...How do you linger? How do you HAUNT people?" Wow, great stuff. I ordered this book the day it was released & look forward to reading it when it arrives.
I just finished Klara and the Sun and it's definitely lingering. And years later, I still think about the last lines of The Remains of the Day- where he talks about how he should work on learning how to banter/talk with people- it's quietly heartbreaking
@@zipperman1063 Late reply- but the ending of Remains was heartbreaking to me because here he is, not a young man anymore, and it only just occurs to him that he should maybe work on connecting with people
I just finished Klara and the Sun and I remember the days back 20 years when I was reading literature from other Nobel prize winners. It is something captivating about it. For me is not even about the story. It is about the reading experience. My realization is that Kazuo is really good at it. In the last 20 pages I felt like me being the narrator.
The first Ishiguro novel I read was Remains of the Day, and that book still lingers in my mind. It’s sticks around and makes you question so many things. And most importantly makes me look at people in a certain way.
Would have been nice if he'd had the chance to explain how exactly he goes about lingering in his readers' minds, his approach or technique. I was all ready to hear his thoughts when the video screeched to an end.
Sometimes I wonder what makes us so much engaged all time to become supreme in English language, if we have knew our position in advance could identify the lane of words linked to it in English language.
If there was any intellectual challenge in Remains of the Day he could have been today's Conrad, but this is dumbed-down world, and Ishiguro not only fits right in, but helps push the agenda. His book is dinner at mcdonalds.
Cathy Newman made mistakes in her interview on Jan 16, 2018 and should be ashamed of herself for letting her own ideological bias to twist the words of her interviewee.
Cathy Newman misstated her interviewee’s words over 30 times in a half hour interview on Jan 16, 2018. Cathy should be held to account for her actions. May illness, misfortune, and bad things all happen to Cathy Newman as karma for what she did. Cathy: Your children deserve a better mother than you!

If you have issues with this channel that may be valid, but taking it out on the subject of the interview is not. Try being more direct with your issues (direct with the people running the channel, for example) and your comments will have a chance of being helpful instead of out of context, irrelevant & rude.
@@kristinabliss This channel is called "Channel 4 NEWS". But this is not about news. It is about conjuring a character called "Kazuo Ishiguro" out of a hat, whilst corruptly and despicably creaming in the royalties.

that is exactly how i imagined ishiguro's living room looking
He is so elegant and insightful. I always enjoy his interview.

What? I felt it was quietly heartwarming!

remains of the day is the type of book you never forget. ill never read a book quite like that one again. incredible writing.
This interview just made me look up to him more.

I really like stories which linger in my mind long after I've read them

amazing! Thanks miss Rebecca!
Absolutely fascinating! From the perspective of an A.I, human emotions would just appear irrational
When you are actually English but you can not help coming up with the most Japanese premise ever
Isn’t this just the movie “Her” lol
@@chiyeunglau4322 Same subject and premise, but use them in different ways. I don't want to spoil the book. The endings are quite different.
Ishiguro says young authors are self-censoring out

I love him so much
😊😊
It troubles me sometimes to the point I can’t sleep. Pros and cons to everything. 3:56
We humans are just algorithms. Love is also just a hormonal rush, created by algorithms. No different with AI.
Even if there is such a thing as spirit, no reason why spirit cannot inhabit a robot.
yes
how DO you haunt people...

Mate it was a bad interview but it was three fucking years ago get over it, Jordan Peterson isn't some deity. Why harbour such hatred towards her.
@@rosastarbuxemburg init, this guys lost the plot lol
Who is thus "Kazuo Ishiguro"? Channel 4 should stop fabricating people they hope they can promote for a royalty.
Oh, idk, "just" the winner of the Nobelprize in literature, you know.
Artist's & writers are just make-believe, something out of a dream, right?
@@kristinabliss Especially when promoted by the greedy self-interested Channel 4 group.
