I just finished a great short story collection by Kazuo Ishiguro called Nocturnes.  5 short stories that all deal with musicians, or music or memories of music.  They are a bit melancholy and sad, just like his novels.  But for all of you who like the author and his books 'Remains of the Day' or my all-time favourite 'Never Let Me Go' and all of you who enjoy music or what it invokes in us, I would highly recommend the book.

It made me listen to my Sarah Vaughn CD again and I had forgotten how beautiful her songs are.
