Never Let Me Go

By Kazuo Ishiguro

A beautiful anniversary edition to mark twenty years of Kazuo Ishiguro’s modern classic, in which he imagines the lives of a group of students growing up in a darkly skewed version of 1990s England.

Narrated by Kathy H, as she tries to come to terms with her childhood at the seemingly idyllic Hailsham School, it is a story of love, friendship and memory, charged throughout with a sense of life’s fragility.
