Klara and the Sun
by Kazuo Ishiguro
Kazuo Ishiguro's Klara and the Sun narrates a near future through Klara, a solar-powered Artificial Friend purchased as companion to a sick girl, whose keen observation and faulty conclusions make her one of fiction's great machine narrators. It is science fiction as a Nobel laureate writes it: the technology offstage, the loneliness fully lit.
Never Let Me Go
by Kazuo Ishiguro
Kazuo Ishiguro's modern classic follows Kathy, Ruth, and Tommy from an English boarding school into the adult lives they were made for. A restrained, devastating dystopian novel about euphemism, friendship, and what people accept when it has always been the rule.
