"The Rest of the Day" is a butler's diary, life from Barrymore's point of view. Its stylistics is based on restraint, revealing itself in the very mechanics of speech. The hero does not consider it possible to show his feelings, and at the linguistic level this peculiar asceticism leads to remarkable results - we see a kind of the flip side of Dostoevsky with his uncontrollable flow of emotions.
