Synopsis "The Unconsoled "

From the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature and author of the Booker Prize-winning novel The Remains of the Day, here is a novel that is at once a gripping psychological mystery, a wicked satire of the cult of art, and a poignant character study of a man whose public life has accelerated beyond his control. The setting is a nameless Central European city where Ryder, a renowned pianist, has come to give the most important performance of his life. Instead, he finds himself diverted on a series of cryptic and infuriating errands that nevertheless provide him with vital clues to his own past. In The Unconsoled Ishiguro creates a work that is itself a virtuoso performance, strange, haunting, and resonant with humanity and wit.

Kazuo Ishiguro (Kazuo Ishiguro OBE, nacido el 8 de noviembre de 1954 en Nagasaki, Japón) es un novelista británico de origen japonés, reconocido por su estilo sobrio y su exploración de la memoria, el tiempo y la identidad. Se trasladó al Reino Unido en su infancia y estudió en la Universidad de Kent y la Universidad de East Anglia. Desde su debut con A Pale View of Hills (1982), ha construido una obra literaria marcada por narradores introspectivos y estructuras cuidadosamente contenidas, consolidándose como una figura clave de la literatura contemporánea.

Es autor de novelas ampliamente reconocidas como The Remains of the Day, Never Let Me Go y Klara and the Sun, en las que combina elementos realistas con sutiles incursiones en lo distópico o especulativo. En 2017 recibió el Premio Nobel de Literatura, destacando su capacidad para revelar “el abismo bajo nuestro sentido ilusorio de conexión con el mundo”. Su obra ha sido traducida a numerosos idiomas y varias de sus novelas han sido adaptadas al cine, reforzando su impacto cultural a nivel global.
