I disliked every single character in this book.

That being said, this book left me confused and not quite. I think it was hinting at some point to what was going on (Etsuko's dream), but I still didn't quite realize it until later in the book. And even then, since I got my hands on a poorly edited version, I actually thought the pronouns in the last pages were misspelled (that until Mariko was running away towards the cottage).

Although I didn't like any of the characters, the novel is really good. And I must say, I like Ishiguro's writing a lot.
