The remains of the day is a profoundly compelling portrait of the pefect English butler and of his fading, insular world in postwar England. At the end of this tree decades of service at Darlington Hall, Stevens embarks on a country drive, during which he looks back over his career to reassure himself that he has served humanity by serving "a great gentleman". But lurking in his memory are doubts about the true nature of Lord Darlington's"greatness" and graver doubts about his own faith in the man he served.
