Wadsö-Lecaros, Cecilia LU orcid (2022) In Lund Journal of English Studies 3. p.11-17
Abstract
Linking the fragmentary information provided in Kazuo Ishiguro’s “A Family Supper” (1982) to the first-person narrator’s unwillingness – or perhaps inability – to communicate, this brief note comments on a few passages that highlight the unforthcoming traits of the narrator.
