Ishiguro, Kazuo - Never Let Me Go (Published in by The Folio Society in 2012. Bound in cloth. Blocked with a design by Kate Miller. Set in Figural. 288 pages. Frontispiece and 8 colour illustrations. Book size: 9" × 6.25". Shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize in 2005, this is an unforgettable, poignant story by the author of The Remains of the Day. This Folio edition contains a new introduction by Claire Messud, award-winning author of The Emperor's Children. She describes Ishiguro's novel as belonging to a 'thin but intense literary vein that runs from King Lear to Beckett and beyond, works that lay bare the human condition in its stark fundamentals … Without fanfare or Dostoevskian histrionics, Never Let Me Go joins the ranks of these abiding works.' This is artist Kate Miller's first commission for The Folio Society. Her beautiful, multi-layered illustrations have been praised by Kazuo Ishiguro as 'subtly gorgeous and full of poignancy'. )
