本論文旨在探討《群山淡景》（A Pale View of Hills）中每個個體對家的渴望及型塑上所經歷的不論是身體上或認知上的遷移及轉變。首章概述石黑一雄（Kazuo Ishiguro）之個人背景及其日裔英國人的身份對他寫作的影響。第二章著重於尾形桑（Ogata-San）對國家與家不可分割的情感導致其在戰敗日本社會中產生格格不入的錯置感。第三章主要探討悅子（Etsuko）及幸子（Sachiko）對於遠行及遷移的企圖，在時間及空間不斷交錯下，悅子試圖在不完整的回憶中合理解釋其遺忘亦是壓抑的過往，用以療傷、面對未來，進而重置其安身立命之處；幸子則對家充滿著自由及機會的想望，其願景使她不斷地遠離安定的處所，然而陌生的環境只會讓人更感疏離。第四章重在檢視慶子（Keiko）及真理子（Mariko）對於無力抵抗母親們遠行的決定而處於無所依歸的窘境。末章則重申家不再是永恆不變地等著旅人回家遮風避雨的住所，個體對家的渴望進而重置家園的過程是需歷經遠行者不斷地與空間的交互運作才有可能通往回家的路，因為只有回家之人能決定何處為家處處家及何謂家的真諦。

The main focus of my thesis is each chapter's consideration of an individual search for home, involving either or both physical and cognitive movement. However, they also come together through exploration of a series of related and interconnecting themes. One of these is “home desiring” and the other is “home making”. The thesis consists of five chapters.
The introduction, Chapter One, begins with a short summary of Kazuo Ishiguro’s personal background and how his Japanese-British breeding influences his writing. In Chapter Two, I discuss that Ogata-San's nostalgia towards the glorious days before the bomb fell in Nagasaki and his breeding enforce him to serve his country with absolute fidelity, love and devotion. He believes that the country represents his only family, his only home. His incapability of negotiating different levels of loyalty and orientation to his fallen country makes him restless and dislocated in the transformed Japan. In Chapter Three, I chiefly deal with Etsuko and Sachiko's intention to travel and migrate to foreign countries. Etsuko physically keeps moving from Japan to England, the apartment complex to the English countryside and psychologically from the traumatic past to the oblivious present. Through the discrepant memories and discontinuous stories, she strives to relocate herself in the new context of home and redeems her unspeakable guilt of bringing her elder daughter, Keiko to England. Sachiko keeps moving—from Tokyo, her uncle's house in Nagasaki, the cottage on the river side in Nagasaki, then to America—in order to rebuild a home she imagines being free and full of opportunities. Her experiences and means of orientation are divorced from the stable locations. She is in the hands of the unfamiliar surroundings which lead her to be unable to feel totally at home. Chapter Four aims to manifest Keiko and Mariko’s vulnerability to resist their mothers’ insistence and enforcement to bring them to nowhere they can identify with and feel belong to. They never feel inside a place. As a result, they are always on the road to search for a homely home. In concluding chapter, I reiterate the analysis of A Pale View of Hills and the mechanism of home desiring and home making which designates a process of being continually remade through a process of contact and interchange. Home does not illustrate a fixed image of a harbour or a shelter any more. It is not a stabilized construction which waits to provide the homeward bound travellers with warmth but it is the home goers who decide where home is and what it should be like.
