## About this book

Kazuo Ishiguro’s Klara and the Sun launches the Klara and the Sun: The Times and Sunday Times Book of the Year series as a poignant entry in literary fiction and coming-of-age storytelling. Klara, an Artificial Friend of exceptional perception, observes life from a store display, carefully noting the behaviours of customers and pedestrians. She hopes a visitor will eventually select her, yet remains aware of the uncertainty of human affection.

When a possible new beginning appears, Klara is advised not to place too much faith in human promises. In his first novel following the Nobel Prize in Literature, Ishiguro examines a transforming world through Klara’s luminous vision, ultimately questioning what it truly means to love. This volume one reflects on connection and consciousness with quiet mastery.
