A review by kutreen
Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro

hopeful mysterious reflective sad medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

Moves slowly, but I was always very engaged because it's so interesting to see how an advanced human-like robot observes and makes sense of the world. This book is philosophical and imagines a future that is not so out-of-reach. Even though it's written from the perspective of a robot, it taught me a lot about the human heart.
