About This Novel

A nightmare that is both real and imaginary, the Battle of Songhu and the Siege of Shanghai are described by a Nobel Prize-winning writer. "We Are Orphans" is the fifth novel by Nobel Prize winner Kazuo Ishiguro, first published in 2000. London, England, 1930s. The young and successful Christopher Banks is a well-known detective throughout the UK. His legend of solving crimes has long been spread word of mouth in London social circles. However, for many years, an unsolved case has lingered in the mind of the famous detective for a long time. That is the mysterious disappearance of his biological parents in old Shanghai when he was a child. "Chasing the shadow of the disappearance of his parents", our protagonist searches all the way from the rich and luxurious London upper class, and finally returns to Shanghai under the gunfire of the Japanese invaders. This was by no means a tender homecoming. In this city that was once bustling with traffic and is now full of smoke and smoke, what awaits him is a dark secret and a cruel truth, and his Sherlock Holmes-like fairy tale life will be reduced to ruins like his childhood hometown... The new edition includes Kazuo Ishiguro's Nobel Prize-winning speech, and reads the Nobel Prize-winning writer's writing outlook and growth history in one volume.
