A clear frontrunner to be the years most extraordinary novel . . . Not since The Remains of the Day has Ishiguro written about wasted lives with such finely gauged forlornness.' Sunday TimesIn one of the most acclaimed and original novels of recent years, Kazuo Ishiguro imagines the lives of a group of students growing up in a darkly skewered version of contemporary England. Narrated by Kathy, now thirty-one, Never Let Me Go hauntingly 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.

a publié une critique de Never Let Me Go par Kazuo Ishiguro

utterly relatable

The dystopian premise that's central but hardly the point narrows and sharpens this otherwise moving English boarding school story of childhood misinterpretations, loves, obsessions growing into adult reframing, acquiescence, and ailing concerns to an objective study of universal questions.

A Memory

Heartbreaking, cute, heartwarming

Heartbreaking, cute, heartwarming, description of a weird boarding school in a weird world and very normal children. Very short, you could easily read this in one evening. I don't really know what i like about it, it's just ... very good? Gripping?
