A Review Before Reading.

I’ve decided that I want to read Kazuo Ishiguro’s novel Klara and the Sun. (I saw it in Sainsbury’s today priced at a very modest £4.) I just looked it up on Wiki and read one of the reviews published in the Guardian newspaper. I appreciated the following small snippet:

‘…it enacts the way we learn how to love. Klara and the Sun is wise like a child who decides, just for a little while, to love their doll. “What can children know about genuine love?” Klara asks. The answer, of course, is everything.’

Maybe this answers one of my lifelong questions.
