Abstract: | The present article examines the professions of creed and multicultural literary identity of Kazuo Ishiguro, one of the most celebrated contemporary British novelists, who, rejecting all critical attempts at pigeonholing his work on the criteria of nationality or ethnicity, prefers to define himself as an „international writer‟. The paper highlights the ways in which the writer‟s claim to an international theme and global identity is verified by his texts. |
