From the Booker Prize-winning author of The Remains of the Day and When We Were Orphans, comes an unforgettable edge-of-your-seat mystery that is at once heartbreakingly tender and morally courageous about what it means to be human.

Hailsham seems like a pleasant English boarding school, far from the influences of the city. Its students are well tended and supported, trained in art and literature, and become just the sort of people the world wants them to be. But, curiously, they are taught nothing of the outside world and are allowed little contact with it.

Within the grounds of Hailsham, Kathy grows from schoolgirl to young woman, but it’s only when she and her friends Ruth and Tommy leave the safe grounds of the school (as they always knew they would) that they realize the full truth of what Hailsham is.

Never Let Me Go breaks through the boundaries of the literary novel. It is a gripping mystery, a beautiful love story, and also a scathing critique of human arrogance and a moral examination of how we treat the vulnerable and different in our society. In exploring the themes of memory and the impact of the past, Ishiguro takes on the idea of a possible future to create his most moving and powerful book to date.

读后感

1.感觉本书内敛的笔调并不很适合克隆人这么一种激进的伦理题材。 2.虽然也是五星之选，但相比于《疾病解说者》还是有所差距。 3.编辑的功课不够到位。纵然不是推理小说，封面封底简介译序中无处不在的泄底依然十分可恨。和《捕蜂机》可谓难兄难弟。 4.装祯好难看。尤其封底介绍...  

文/赵客 1996年7月5日，人类历史上的第一只克隆动物——绵羊多莉诞生了，这只由乳腺细胞发育而来的小羊引起了全世界的瞩目，也引发了克隆人的幻想，一时间争议不断。绵羊的平均寿命在12年左右，然而多莉仅仅活了6年，就于2003年去世。科学家们找不到多莉早夭的原因，猜想细胞或...

I love this book. I just love it. In fact I watched the trailer of "Never let me go" on iTunes, and just couldn't wait for the movie. I searched internet for this novel immediately and bought in that same afternoon. It is very disturbing reading the story...  

第一次读到石黑一雄是他那本处女作《远山淡影》，他在小说里不厌其烦地描述一个日本女人的内心幻象，结局令人难以忘怀。今天早上花了两个小时读完了他的名作《别让我走》，村上春树曾经把这本书形容为“半个世纪以来读到的最好的小说”。 和川端康成一样，石黑一雄喜欢描述人...  

用户评价

impressive and powerful

滿懷期待當自己合上這本書的時候會淚流滿面，而事實卻是被瘧的說不出話也哭不出來。之前忍不住去看預告的時候很沒出息地被一個鏡頭弄的鼻子發酸，眼睛全濕了。石黒一雄用他一貫很平淡的筆調一點點揭開真相，沒有一絲煽情。書中第一人稱的kathy回憶着自己的童年，朋友以及最後的愛，她講述地太過於平靜，好像那些事情根本就沒有那麼殘酷冰冷。這本書後勁很足，開始時會覺得有些無聊瑣碎但讀完后會忍不住再翻到前面看看，腦子裡面想的全是他們的事。看得胸悶到極點但是發泄不出來，他們的人生是制定好的，必須這麼走下去，沒有任何改變的餘地。得知真相后的他們沒有反抗也沒有逃離而是默默地接受，儘管是如此不甘心； 最後的道別平淡地讓人心碎。They won't see you as a human even you have soul

读的我很痛苦

一直偏爱移民作家，他们像是石头上生出的花。生命的姿态往往在毁灭与拯救之间混淆不清。
