The 2016 Nobel Prize taught us that writing doesn't have to be unreadable to be literature and 'Never Let Me Go' reinforces that message. It is a book that grasps you and draws you along with the enfolding story whilst simultaneously dropping little ideas into your head questioning our society which I'm sure will be giving me pause for thought for the coming time. The craftsmanship is remarkable, with Ishiguro dropping hints about what is coming in such a way as to create an expectation but still with uncertainty and a quantum of suspense remaining to keep the pages turning. Wonderful literary science-fiction!
