About This Novel
"Serenade" is Kazuo Ishiguro's only collection of short stories. Using music as a clue, it consists of five seemingly independent but interrelated stories. The main characters in the story are all related to music: a frustrated restaurant musician, a faded singer, a self-admired cellist, a saxophonist who was forced to undergo plastic surgery for success, etc. Most of them are passionate about music but full of complaints about life. The plots may be absurd or lamentable. Using the theme of music and life, they express the author's consistent reflection on the living conditions of modern people. The bilingual version of "Serenade" is accompanied by the original text of the work, allowing readers to appreciate Ishiguro's exquisite and beautiful original English text at the same time, and enjoy double beauty.
