A Single Man

A true story of sincere love, tragic loss, and endless loneliness. The novel “A Single Man,” first published in 1964 and filmed in 2009 by Tom Ford (starring Colin Firth), is one of Ishiguro’s most well-known works?—

One day from the life of a not-so-young university professor who has recently lost his closest person—and now he doesn’t know how, and for what, to go on living. He is surrounded by people—people who, perhaps, even love him and certainly try to understand and support him. But their good intentions make his sense of absolute loneliness even more intense.
