About this product

Product Information

Kazuo Ishiguro has been acclaimed in the Sunday Times for 'extending the possibilities of fiction.' In Never Let Me Go he has fashioned another remarkable story - a story of love, loss and hidden truths - that takes its place amongst his finest work.Kathy, Ruth and Tommy were pupils at Hailsham - an idyllic establishment situated deep in the English countryside. The Children there were tenderly sheltered from the outside world, brought up to believe they were special, and that their personal welfare was crucial. But for what reason were they really there?It is only years later that Kathy, now aged 31, finally allows herself to yield to the pull of memory. What unfolds is the haunting story of how Kathy, Ruth and Tommy, slowly come face the truth about their seemingly happy childhoods - and about their futures.Never Let Me Go is a uniquely moving novel, charged throughout with a sense of the fragility of our lives.

    good moral sub-plot, basic narrative.

    great service, book in great condition, not a great book though. I bought it as a possible novel for my A2 coursework base upon the morality and ethical issues that surround cloning. Unfortunately I did not find the narrative appealing, and the moral issues were partially there, continually running through the book but they only really came to head roused debate in one section of the book. I didn't enjoy the narrative, the way Ishiguro wrote the plot was too basic and irrelevant to the main themes for me. I won't be reading it again. I prefer dystopian novels such as The Handmaid's Tale where the ethical issue is taken and made the focus of the novel, of which the characters and setting follow.

    Yuk

    Worst book I've ever read - well, only got to chapter 3. Subject matter fanciful. Boring style of writing. Can't understand the hype about this book and author.
