From Stevens’ memories, we learn that Lord Darlington had a “working relationship” with Herr Ribbentrop, a German Ambassador who was working under Hitler to influence Lord Darlington and other English households (165). Lord Darlington was also an acquaintance of Mrs. As Stevens’ words and actions didn’t match up, I was naturally suspicious of his previous employer, and in the remaining parts of the book, we learn more about the allegations against him.

Stevens then noted another time where he suggested to someone that he had never met Lord Darlington, despite his insistence to us that Lord Darlington was a “gentleman of great moral stature” and that all rumours about him have been “utter nonsense” (154). At the end of the previous chapter, Stevens led a man into believing that he had never worked for Lord Darlington, even though we know that he had. In this post, I will be talking about “Day Three – Morning” until the end of the book. I guess you really don’t grow out of being a procrastinator…Īnyway, as I noted in Part Two, the following wrap-up will contain spoilers as this is a discussion post! Please tread carefully if you haven’t read the book 😉 Hi everyone! How’s your #RemainsReread going? If you’ve been following Random House Canada’s schedule, you have probably noticed that I should be wrapping up the book today and you would be right! Just as writing my Part One reflections on September 1st reminded me of school, my missing a post last week and having to cram part three and four into this one post also brings me back to my student days.
