‘A delicate, haunting story’The Washington Post
‘This is a novel for fans of Never Let Me Go . . . tender, touching and true.’The Times

‘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 for ever, 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 world through the eyes of an unforgettable narrator to explore a fundamental question: what does it mean to love?

Recipient of the 2017 Nobel Prize in Literature, the Nagasaki-born Kazuo Ishiguro’s writing career began with 1982’s acclaimed novel A Pale View of Hills. His third book, The Remains of the Day (1989), firmly secured his reputation as a writer with an unparalleled control of character and nuance; its standing was later confirmed by winning the Booker Prize for that year.

If anything, Ishiguro’s reputation has only grown over the years, scoring another triumph in 2005 with his dystopian masterwork Never Let Me Go which was again shortlisted for the Man Booker; to date, Ishiguro has been shortlisted for the Booker Prize four times. 

Recently drawing plaudits once again for his recent, extraordinary fantasy parable The Buried Giant, the Swedish Nobel Prize Academy praised Ishiguro as a writer "who, in novels of great emotional force, has uncovered the abyss beneath our illusory sense of connection with the world".
