Never let me go by Kazuo Ishiguro

Never Let Me Go is Kazuo Ishiguro’s haunting novel about friendship, memory and what it means to be human. Narrated by Kathy, it looks back on her years at Hailsham, an apparently idyllic English boarding school where pupils are carefully looked after and encouraged in art and literature but told little about the world beyond.

As Kathy, Ruth and Tommy grow up and eventually leave, they come to understand the truth of what Hailsham is and the future it has prepared them for. Quietly devastating and beautifully restrained, it is a modern classic from the author of The Remains of the Day and a superb choice for book clubs.
