Never Let Me Go

«Never Let Me Go» — a poignant book that rightfully belongs to the list of the 100 best English novels of all time. Its author — a native Japanese, a graduate of Malcolm Bradbury's literary seminar and a winner of the Booker and Nobel Prizes. Thirty-year-old Kathy recalls her childhood at the privileged Hailsham school, full of strange ambiguities, half-truths, and an underlying threat. This is a parable novel. It is a story of love, friendship, and memory. It is the ultimate embodiment of the metaphor «to serve your entire life». And it is also a parable about the present and the past that evokes emotional turmoil and pain. A pain that will heal but will stay with you long after reading. Adapted into a film in 2010.
