Kazuo Ishiguro received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2017, making them laureate number 114 since the prize was first awarded in 1901.
They are one of 11 laureates from United Kingdom.
Our pick for reading Kazuo Ishiguro for the first time is The Remains of the Day. It is one of the most widely read Nobel books in the world and an easy way in.
The Remains of the Day is the voice of Stevens, an English butler who takes a road trip in 1956 and looks back on a life in service to a lord. Beneath his restrained tone lies a painful story of love never lived. It won the Booker Prize and was filmed with Anthony Hopkins.
One email on announcement day with the winner and where to start reading. Then one Nobel read a month.
