Never Let Me Go is a haunting dystopian novel about the life circumstances of a young woman and her friends. The novel opens with the narrator retelling her experiences and those of her friends at an isolated boarding school in the English countryside. The students have virtually no contact with the outside world and only have vague ideas about the reality of their future. The fact that the book is set in the recent past gives the sci-fi element a more realistic and haunting feel. Never Let Me Go is a beautifully written and thought provoking story about what it means to be human.
