But in the case of publishing, while trad publishers may not all come out on top, the changes that are
occuring are better for readers, and I think for writers too.
Like many of Kazuo Ishiguro's widely - acclaimed novels, Nocturnes charts the nature of shifting relationships, the passage of time, real and perceived failures, the consequences of deferred dreams, feelings of estrangement, and the quiet but destructive erosion that
occurs when truth
is denied
for too long, yet it does so with more attenuated gestures and less reflection... Fans of his novels may enjoy the change of pace offered by this debut, but newer
readers may prefer to begin with his previous works, which
better exemplify his talents.
