Sue Bentley

Incredible writing, gripping story and masterful character creation. genius.

Granskad i Storbritannien den 24 september 2019

Verifierat köp

Asolutely riveting book, I devoured it in two sessions and if I didn't have to go to work it would have been one. The main protagonist tells the story of her childhood in an institution of some kind, one with odd rules and unspoken truths everywhere. So much of the story is banal, trivial detail yet you care so much about the people in the book you want to know every detail. I yearn to see Tommy's animals and I wish Ruth had got the office job. The world these children live in is revealed slowly and gradually, like a room lightening up as the sun comes up almost imperceptively, and you start to see beneath the sunny childhood a darkness, a horror - I kept hoping what was becoming apparant was not the finality, not the whole story. Utterly brilliant writing. And sadly, I think it does ring true and society can be that evil in the name of self preservation.

Often a demanding book , but well worth the challenge.

Granskad i Storbritannien den 22 juni 2020

Verifierat köp

This dystopian novel, has its roots in Brave New World and possibly The Island, which deals with parallel material in a very different way. Here, although we are in the present, the book constantly looks towards the future. Already it is well within the bounds of possibility that cloning of people to provide vital organs could happen. The scientific knowledge is there; key political decisions will be crucial.

The novel is largely set in an independent boarding school in the 1990s in the UK. The subjects/victims are kept in isolation from society and in ignorance of their fates. Many may dismiss the book as depressing and much is decidedly sad. However, the key relationships, although poignant, lift the novel from abject misery. The novel exalts the individual as it exalts human relationships. While Ishiguro does not flinch from reality, he evokes empathy as well as pity. I don’t think that the writing is of the calibre of The Remains of the Day, an exceptional novel, but it is thought-provoking, challenging and at its best moving.

It is horror but a sad kind of horror!

Granskad i Storbritannien den 16 februari 2019

This little novel makes me feel very much satisfied after reading it. At first, the pace is really slow-motion, particularly with the first person narration. It has taken me many days to finish the first third of the story and then the story has become more interesting as the characters have stepped outside their confined surroundings.
But the author has reached new height in his concealment of information as his usual tactics of telling a good story. His ingenious use of the first person in The Remains of the Day has fully demonstrated how the author conceals information from readers who try to understand the full picture of the story being narrated; here the writer presents factual information as objective as possible but the reader can only grasp the significance almost near the end of the story.
Never Let Me Go has successfully forced me to keep revising my guess of what is going on with the main character Kathy. When she says something regarding her job as a carer, I has been led or misled to infer she is working in a "home" nursing the elderly and the needy; later on when they have their fun in a confined environment, it almost forces me to infer they are living in an orphanage pretty much like what usually happens in a Dickensian novel. As the story goes on, I have to revise, again, my guess as these children might be the victims of human trafficking to satisfy the lustful desires of the outside world; my guess has further undergone revision, when Kathy reveals new clues and later solid information, that these children are "grown" like plants to fulfill certain functions as they might have been "cultivated" from stem cells to save their models. It is almost the end when they venture to visit their Madame do they find out their true identity: clones.
This story is the Brave New World narrated from a first person perspective. It is also like a retelling of The Outsider by Camus in a female voice because the characters implicitly touch upon the meaning of their existence except there is almost no meaning for their existence. Their world is cut off from the world peopled by the real human beings and heir only function is to provide organs for the real human beings; what remains of their own existence is their sense of being through their own subjectivity: impressions and memories. When Kathy tries to embrace their past in a place where they grew up together, she could not find the exact location except a profound sense of loss.
A very good read. It is remarkable that the author has found a new style for his story telling and succeeds with this sad story about love and death.

Mr. S. A. Brown

A beautiful disturbing book

Granskad i Storbritannien den 8 augusti 2015

Verifierat köp

I wasn't sure what to expect from this given some of the other reviews. I think it's fair to say the reviews are split between those who think it's a work of genius and others who think the characters are unbelievable/difficult to sympathise with.

Having read it now I tend to side with those who think it's a work of genius. It's an easy book to read, with the bulk of it taking place during the narrator's school years. In the beginning it reads like a fairly conventional novel, but as it goes on you become aware of the somewhat sinister basis for the school existing (which I won't state here as it would ruin it for anyone who hasn't read the book yet).

It's a very disturbing book in many ways precisely because the characters don't act in the way you'd expect them to. The criticism that this makes it unbelievable/unrealistic is missing the point. The book is largely about the way that human beings accept unreasonable systems of power. The children are essentially being exploited, but because they've been brought up to accept it they do - just as human beings have accepted abhorrent political regimes throughout history or other crimes against humanity like slavery.

In general we tend to think that if we were living under some tyrannical political system we'd all refuse to go along with it. Yet the disturbing truth is probably what this book suggests - that when you're brought up within a particular social system it's easy to just give in and accept it. Worse, the children in the book actually seem to take pride in the school they were brought up in. They have a powerful sense of nostalgia for their school even though it's little more than a prison once you realise the purpose behind it.

Overall I found it a genuinely moving illustration of an aspect of human nature that we usually like to ignore. The fact that it's also a great page turner just elevates it even higher.

Read if you enjoy endless monologues

Granskad i Storbritannien den 26 januari 2021

I don't understand why this is such a critically acclaimed book. Nothing happens. You're tortured by having to listen to the narrator drone on a about a tree, about an argument with a friend, and then absently mentioning (SPOILERSPOILER) that she happens to be a clone that was bred to give her organs away. Right. Cool. So, is she going to do anything about it when she finds out and her friends are being dissected and killed? Nope, she carries on like normal and begins telling some other pointless story.

The critics say this had telling lessons about humanity, but there were no lessons in this book. Everything happened in such painful slowness and nothing was explained. This book has no genre. It's like a plain bowl of porridge. The only thing that makes it interesting would be your own work to make it so, which to me, is not a fear of literary genius, it's not good writing. It was an apathetic portrayal of something that isnt even that new of an idea. Thank you for that utter let down, Kazuo Ishiguro with this book. I wish I could return it and get my wasted time back. You can keep the money.
