Google anyone? Sep 26, 2008

Hi Kasia,

Well there seem to be lost of different possibilities for "ZEN COMEDY" I assume you already looked on Google? Youtube? Maybe you can give more details on what you found already and what seems unclear, or in which context you are looking for this.

thanks

Hello Kasia,

How are you doing? Long time no see. You must be back in Poland.

I guess you are still looking for someone who knows about Kazuo Ishiguro's "The Remains of the Day" and who can tell you what it means by "Zen comedy" in this novel written by Ishiguro.

I am sorry that I cannot help with this. But maybe you can look for literary critics who writes about this with search engines.

Good luck!

- Wenjer
