Nocturnes: Five stories of Music and Nightfall by Kazuo Ishiguro
Ishiguro's first venture into short story writing and the writing is as elegant as ever. The stories are about relationships not music per se and the sadness within each is tempered with moments of comedy. The book also looks at what makes a success (celebrity) today - a facelift or a younger woman perhaps. I have enjoyably dipped into it more than once.
