Essay Grade: 86%Contrast the Use of Humour in "the Remains of the Day" and "a Room with a View"
520 words, approx. 2 pages
In both Kazuo Ishiguro's novel The Remains of the Day and E.M. Forster's novel A Room with a View, humor is used to lighten the mood of serious social commentary. However, the humor in The Remains of the Day takes the form of tragi-comedy, underlining a more deeply rooted sadness in Stevens' character; whereas the humor in A Room with a View is much less tragic, displaying social class difference and the absurdity of upper class pretensions.
