Never Let Me Go - Kazuo Ishiguro

In Kazuo Ishiguro's novel Never Let Me Go, we follow the lives of three friends—Kathy, Tommy, and Ruth—growing up in a seemingly idyllic boarding school called Hailsham. However, the unsettling reality of their existence unfolds as they grapple with their predetermined fates in a dystopian society that views them as mere resources. Ishiguro masterfully weaves themes of memory, loss, and the ethics of humanity, prompting readers to reflect on the essence of life and the significance of human connections in the face of inevitable mortality. The haunting prose evokes a deep emotional response while exploring the delicate intersections of love, identity, and the moral implications of scientific advancement.
