Kazuo Ishiguro: Never Let Me Go. Printed book.

Kazuo Ishiguro was born in the Japanese city of Nagasaki, but moved to the UK with his family as a child. He dreamed of becoming a musician. Instead, Ishiguro received the Booker and Nobel Prizes in Literature. Critics have often compared him to Vladimir Nabokov—both authors became classics while writing their masterpieces in a language other than their native one. "Never Let Me Go" is included in Time magazine's list of the 100 best English-language novels.

A dystopian Great Britain of the late 20th century. In a secluded boarding school, children are raised and educated, destined to become organ donors and meet their end on the operating table. Kathy, Tommy, and Ruth know what fate lies in store for them, yet they make no attempt to change it. They are busy creating artwork for the mysterious Madame's Gallery. They protect one of their favorite guardians, read, quarrel, fall in love, and experience their first sexual encounters. They search for their "possible"—the person they were cloned from. Their lives are rich, yet short. Their path has been determined since birth.
