Query: Easily Forgotten

Not as good as Ishiguro's other works. His very best was Artist of the Floating World, followed by Remains of the Day. This book follows the career of a Shangai-raised Englishmen who becomes a detective. Like all Ishiguro's book, the narrarator has exagerated sense of formality. The sense of denial and the sort of "elephant in the middle of the room" truths that lead to great ending in Ishiguro's other books never materialize in this one.
