5.0

Another tragically beautiful masterpiece from Ishiguro. Once again he drip feeds hints regarding the dystopian world the characters inhabit and we are left to piece together clues until the full picture is finally presented to us. A beautiful reflection of different types of love: whether it be possessive or selfless. Klara’ as innocence makes her an excellent narrator and way into this world, and she couldn’t be more loveable.
