From the Booker Prize-winning author of The Remains of the
Day comes a devastating new novel of innocence, knowledge,
and loss.
As children Kathy, Ruth, and Tommy were students
at Hailsham, an exclusive boarding school secluded in the
English countryside. It was a place of mercurial cliques and
mysterious rules where teachers were constantly reminding
their charges of how special they were.
Now, years later, Kathy is a young woman. Ruth and Tommy
have reentered her life. And for the first time she is
beginning to look back at their shared past and understand
just what it is that makes them special–and how that gift
will shape the rest of their time together. Suspenseful,
moving, beautifully atmospheric, Never Let Me Go is another
classic by the author of The Remains of the Day
