Inglaterra, julio de 1956. Stevens, el narrador, durante treinta años ha sido mayordomo de Darlington Hall. Lord Darlington murió hace tres años, y la propiedad pertenece ahora a un americano. El mayordomo, por primera vez en su vida, hará un viaje. El americano regresará por unas semanas a su país, y le ha ofrecido al mayordomo su coche —que fuera de Lord Darlington— para que disfrute de unas vacaciones.

1948, Japan. The celebrated painter Masuji Ono fills his days attending to his garden, his house repairs, his two grown daughters and his grandson; his evenings drinking with old associates in quiet lantern-lit bars. His should be a tranquil retirement. But as his memories continually return to the past - to a life and a career deeply touched by the rise of Japanese militarism - a dark shadow begins to grow over his serenity.

Ausgezeichnet mit dem Nobelpreis für Literatur 2017! Seit Jahrzehnten dient Stevens als Butler auf Darlington Hall. Er sorgt für einen tadellosen Haushalt und ist die Verschwiegenheit in Person: Er hat sein Leben voll und ganz in den Dienst seines Herrn gestellt, niemals würde er auch nur ein Wort über die merkwürdigen Vorgänge im Herrenhaus verlieren. Jetzt bricht er zum ersten Mal aus seiner gewohnten Welt aus, um seine ehemalige Kollegin, Miss Stenton, in Cornwall zu besuchen.

Shanghai, inizio del Novecento: un bambino, un padre che lavora nel commercio dell'oppio fra Inghilterra e Cina, una madre che si batte per i diritti civili.

Promette di dedicare tutti i suoi straordinari talenti di androide B2 al piccolo amico che la sceglierà. Gli terrà compagnia, lo proteggerà dalla malattia e dalla tristezza, e affronterà per lui l'insidia più grande: imparare tutte le mille stanze del suo cuore umano. Dalla vetrina del suo negozio, Klara osserva trepidante il fuori e le meraviglie che contiene: il disegno del Sole sulle cose e l'alto Palazzo RPO dietro cui ogni sera lo vede sparire.

Inglaterra en la Edad Media. Del paso de los romanos por la isla sólo quedan ruinas, y Arturo y Merlín –amados por unos, odiados por otros– son leyendas del pasado.

En una de ellas vive una pareja de ancianos –Axl y Beatrice– que toma la decisión de partir en busca de su hijo.
