1. Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro
Klara and the Sun mark Kazuo Ishiguro's first novel since winning the Nobel Prize in Literature. The stunning new novel from the award-winning author simply asks, what does it mean to love?
It follows the story of Klara, an "artificial friend" with outstanding qualities who is waiting for a customer to choose her from the store she's being sold at. But when her chance finally comes, she realises the dangers of relying on the promises on humans. Ishiguro's upcoming novel is a thrilling story of world-building filled with tenderness—just what you should expect from a Nobel laureate.
