Description

THE MULTI-MILLION COPY BESTSELLER
A NEW YORK TIMES AND GUARDIAN BEST BOOK OF THE 21ST CENTURY

‘Masterly.’ Sunday Times
‘A brilliantly executed book by a master craftsman.’ MARGARET ATWOOD
‘A page-turner and a heartbreaker, a tour de force of knotted tension and buried anguish.’ TIME

**Complete with a brand new introduction from the Nobel Prizewinning author.**

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 skewered 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.

Readers adore Never Let Me Go:

‘A masterpiece . . . a beautifully written, skilfully crafted story that reveals what lies in the core of the human heart.’

‘Touches the depths of your intellect and your soul.’

‘A genuinely moving illustration of an aspect of human nature that we usually like to ignore.’

‘I guarantee it will move you and probably bring you close to tears.’

‘A masterful read: gripping, thought-provoking, and immensely sad . . . I have found myself thinking about it for days.’

‘Undoubtedly a modern classic that spans genres.’

‘I read it in a day and I am certain it will stay with me for years.’
