Title: 'When We Were Orphans'-highly recommended
Review: Ishiguro's latest, 'Orphans,' begins on very familiar ground. In fact, a good portion of the book is devoted to the introspection and introspective analysis that often typifies Ishiguro's work. The protagonist explores his past, and specifically his memory of it, to attempt to arrive at an understanding with his present. This journey transforms the novel into a full-scale detective story, giving the novel a compelling and gripping climax to a brilliant story. A most entertaining read.
