New Kazuo Ishiguro

ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICK ----- You always know you are going to be taken to a different place with every Ishiguro novel and happily, this new one is no exception! Klara is an AF, and it takes awhile to understand that she is a solar-powered artificial being with intelligence and greater self-awareness than others. She possesses both concern and curiosity about the world around her, and constructs a particular view of it which is both logical and naïve.

When she is chosen to be the AF (artificial friend) of a young girl, it is the fulfilment of her purpose for existence, and she becomes inextricably involved in Josie's life. But Josie has problems, and Klara observes far more than she is supposed to… A brilliant book which examines the concepts of 'life' and 'intelligence' - it is thoughtful and meditative but also tells a story that you can't help but become invested in. A very fine book indeed! Lindy
