The Buried Giant is INCREDIBLE. One of my absolute favorite books.
How do you compare it with his other books?
@@bijofrancis1114 Assuming you have read his other books as well, it is in the same vein as Never Let Me Go, where a genre concept (Arthurian legend/dragons in The Buried Giant and clones in Never Let Me Go) is used to convey a truth about the human experience (I have not read his newest book yet, which I've heard has sci-fi concepts.) I personally think that denial is a huge theme throughout all of Ishiguro's books, and the way it is used in conjunction with the fantastical in The Buried Giant is just so incredibly creative and effective. I think it's my taste that draws me to The Buried Giant as my favorite book of his because I read and write fantasy. You might find his books grounded in hard realism to be better. Depends on the reader~ ^u^ I love all of his books, though, no matter if there's genre fiction elements or not.
It is a remarkable book.
Finest book I have ever read. There's something deep and disturbing that I think the book gets at, aside from the obvious themes. I think Ishiguro touched on something important.
I loved the book, despite what my favorite critic (J.W.) says. In some ways, The Buried Giant moves fantasy forward, movies literary fiction forward. Fun to read and deeply moving.
J.W?
Why do we not have more views of this particular piece....
Finally a Nobel! Congrats to Kazuo!:))
Kazuo Ishiguro deserves another noble prize
Nobel Prize
Excellent interview. The interviewer does a great job of providing probing, well-researched questions and then letting Ishiguro speak without interruption.
Can i Have the name of the interviewer ? I will be needing it for my thesis.
Interesting!
He's the biggest novelist of this century... but I can't say the Buried Giant is the best book in his collection
I think that's subjective...
His first two books, and The Unconsoled, are my favourites.
Kazuo talks about the novel in response to the first Q and then from 15:20 on. (Video should get a different title!)

I think "The Remains of the Day" is the greatest of Ishiguro. "The Buried Giant" is a challenging and somewhat tedious reading experience for the reader. This is my personal opinion of the text.
Sono curioso di scoprire perché la Italia Araba ha prodotto così tanti scrittori di livello mondiale, quando il resto del Nord è riuscito a fare ciò a stento. La Padania ha una magnifica tradizione artistica, naturalmente, e nell'era moderna una grande tradizione cinematografica, ma deve molto alla Italia Araba per i grandi scrittori e sua superiorità verso suoi connazionali Arabi
