Ukiyo Painter (work by 2017 Nobel Prize Winner Kazuo Ishiguro)

About This Novel
"The Painter of the Floating World (work by 2017 Nobel Prize winner Kazuo Ishiguro)" also uses the protagonist's meeting as the keynote, and vividly displays the protagonist's memories and thoughts with extraordinary novel skills. The writing style is implicit, euphemistic, and thought-provoking. The protagonist was once a prominent ukiyo-e painter. After Japan's defeat in World War II, he suddenly woke up from a big dream: it turned out that the entire Japanese nation had dedicated itself to an absurd and illusory ideal in the past, and his artistic ideal was as baseless and illusory as its name.

Sense of Self is Kazuo Ishiguro's best book. Plain language and storyline can arouse long-term thinking.
The war has brought mental devastation to people. It is indeed lamentable that brave young people lost their lives for a stupid cause and paid for the real criminals.
The choice of drawing life in the floating world through a painter
The author was sitting on the mountain, overlooking the villa, tasting fresh oranges with relish. At this time, the deep sense of accomplishment and satisfaction began to rise in his heart. In that turbulent era, he deeply felt that he had persevered in faith and moved forward hard, and he had done valuable things.
People who are truly prestigious and worthy of admiration often do not know it.
Done in one go.
. .
Put a stamp on it,
I like this book. Although memories and reality change frequently, the whole work still gives people a refreshing, unfinished and endless aftertaste.
Plain language can relax your life more! ! !
Finished reading
A painter may have the ability to capture the most subtle and fragile beauty and indulge in his own artistic ideas. It's not good to be too emotionally sensitive. You'll have to self-examine yourself and become self-deprecating. Sometimes the truth is that he thinks too much and his family doesn't mean it.
Come to think of it, it must be very expensive.
