Remains of the Day. Here's a quote for the OP's original question. > He chose a certain path in life, it proved to be a misguided one, but there, he chose it, he can say that at least. As for myself, I cannot even claim that. You see, I trusted. I trusted in his lordship’s wisdom. All those years I served him, I trusted I was doing something worthwhile. I can’t even say I made my own mistakes. Really – one has to ask oneself – what dignity is there in that?’

Remains of the Day is incredible, but I will say I think ishiguro's best work is Never Let Me Go. The story line is enrapturing but ultimately not what the book is about. I'll leave two quotes. > We all complete. Maybe none of us really understand what we've lived through, or feel we've had enough time. > All children have to be deceived if they are to grow up without trauma
