Libro Never let me go (libro en Inglés). Sinopsis libro, reseña libro. Hailsham seems like a pleasant English boarding school, far from the influences of the city. Its students are well tended and supported, trained in art and literature, and become just the sort of people the world wants them to be. But, curiously, they are taught nothing of the outside world and are allowed little contact with it.
Within the grounds of Hailsham, Kathy grows from schoolgirl to young woman, but it’s only when she and her friends Ruth and Tommy leave the safe grounds of the school (as they always knew they would) that they realize the full truth of what Hailsham is.
Never Let Me Go breaks through the boundaries of the literary novel. It is a gripping mystery, a beautiful love story, and also a scathing critique of human arrogance and a moral examination of how we treat the vulnerable and different in our society. In exploring the themes of memory and the impact of the past, Ishiguro takes on the idea of a possible future to create his most moving and powerful book to date Libro Never let me go (libro en Inglés).
Carol –
It’s very important, if you’re intending to read this book, that you don’t read any reviews or listen to any talk about it first. I had no idea what this book was about before I read it – and the blurb gives you a very different impression, actually – and so I slipped easily into a story that was as engrossing as it was revealing.
If you know something about what to expect, though, I don’t think you’ll enjoy it nearly as much. It’s a bit like an art installation that requires audience participation: you have to do your bit, too, to make it work, so it makes sense, so it tells the story it was meant to tell. Keep yourself in the dark, that’s my advice. Because of this, there’s no point in writing an actual review
