“The Sun always has ways to reach us.”

From her place in the store, Klara, an Artificial Friend with outstanding observational qualities, watches carefully the behaviour of those who come in to browse, and of those who pass in the street outside. She remains hopeful a customer will soon choose her, but when the possibility emerges that her circumstances may change forever, Klara is warned not to invest too much in the promises of humans.

In Klara and the Sun, Kazuo Ishiguro looks at our rapidly changing modern world through the eyes of an unforgettable narrator to explore a fundamental question: what does it mean to love?

Very well written.

A quite enjoyable and entertaining read, and at the same time - quite a deep read.

Good book but!

I really enjoyed the unique, thought provoking storyline but the English accent the narrator is attempting put me on edge and made me grit my teeth.
