In one of the most acclaimed and strange novels of recent years, Kazuo Ishiguro imagines the lives of a group children, living as students growing up in a darkly skewered alternate of contemporary England.
Narrated by Kathy H, now 31, Never Let Me Go hauntingly dramatises her attempts to come to terms with her childhood at the seemingly idyllic Hailsham School, and with the fate that has always awaited her and her closest friends in the wider world. A story of love, friendship, memory and her inevitable fate, Never Let Me Go is charged throughout with a sense of the fragility of life.
An amazing examination of the emotional, spiritual and human consequences of technology we are currently on the cusp of realising.
