Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
**OVER 1 MILLION COPIES SOLD** SHORTLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE #9 in the New York Times '100 Best Books of the 21st Century' 'Brilliantly executed.' MARGARET ATWOOD 'A page-turner and a heartbreaker.' TIME 'Masterly.' SUNDAY TIMES One of the most acclaimed novels of the 21st Century, from the Nobel Prize-winning author Kazuo Ishiguro imagines the lives of a group of students growing up in a darkly skewed version of contemporary England. Narrated by Kathy, now thirty-one, Never Let Me Go 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 and memory, Never Let Me Go is charged throughout with a sense of the fragility of life. 'Exquisite.' GUARDIAN 'A feat of imaginative sympathy.' NEW YORK TIMES What readers are saying: 'A book I will return to again and again, and one that keeps me thinking even after finishing it.' 'I loved it, every single word of it.' 'It took me wholly by surprise.' 'Utterly beautiful.' 'Essentially perfect.'
