This French-language study guide provides a detailed analysis of Kazuo Ishiguro's acclaimed novel *The Remains of the Day*. Written by François Gallix, the work examines the novel's themes of memory, regret, and the unreliability of narration through the perspective of Stevens, an English butler reflecting on his life in service. The guide explores the historical context of post-war England, the nuances of Ishiguro's restrained prose style, and the novel's meditation on dignity and missed opportunities. Designed for students and readers seeking a deeper understanding, it offers chapter-by-chapter commentary, character studies, and discussion of the novel's narrative structure and symbolism. Published by Du Temps in 2001, this concise paperback serves as a valuable companion for academic study or personal enrichment.
