10 months agoI’ve personally had mixed experiences with his works. I really enjoyed The Remains of the Day but didn’t like Never Let Me Go or Klara and the Sun as much.
Out of the books I’ve finished this year (aka not counting DNFs), I would say Letters to a Young Scientist. Rather than continuing the genuine, humble spirit of Letters to a Young Poet (its inspiration), the author used it as a platform to aggrandize himself and his particular career path despite the breadth of the scientific field.
