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.

My Bookcrossing review from March 13, 2007:

A haunting read - it's been a while since I read it and I have placenta brain so I can't remember anything else to say about it unfortunately. I felt much the same as the previous reader in that I found it tedious to begin with but quite insightful when I finished.
