The title of this volume illustrates the significance of margins
and the instability of demarcation in the fiction of Kazuo
Ishiguro. The author approaches Ishiguro's writings as a corpus
rather than separate units, examining the novels to illuminate
their generic, theoretical or stylistic affiliations. The chapters
attend to seemingly peripheral elements - trivial details,
incoherent conversations, hackneyed notions, minor characters and
everyday occurrences - in order to expose what is deliberately
obscured or contained within the explicit narrative. The
poststructuralist approach and the structuralist objective of this
study may appear incongruous, but the seemingly incompatible
pairing in fact articulates a number of paradoxes that Ishiguro's
novels manifest: the alterity of the international, the disclosure
of the concealed, the innovation of the banal, the significance of
the trivial, the presence of the absent and the accord of the
cacophonous.
