Klara and the Sun

By Kazuo Ishiguro

Heartwarming + dystopian = Must read!

Did you see the movie, Her? When the main character falls in love with an artificial intelligence? Here, too, in Klara and the Sun, we fall in love with enchanting Artificial Friend Klara.

Told from her imperfect and naïve point of view, we piece together a dystopian world fraught with the pursuit of human perfection and its cost. Klara, innocent bystander, is our guide, ultimately asking the question, “What is love?”

Heartwarming.
