New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2021. First U.S. edition, first printing. Hardcover. 303 pages. The most recent novel from the 2017 Nobel Prize in Literature winning author of "The Remains of the Day" and "Never Let Me Go." A very near fine unread copy with some slight pushing to the top of the spine and in a fine dust jacket. Signed by Ishiguro on a publisher tipped in page. A very fresh unread copy.

Synopsis

Klara and the Sun is a magnificent new novel from the Nobel laureate Kazuo Ishiguro — author of Never Let Me Go and the Booker Prize-winning The Remains of the Day. Klara and the Sun, the first novel by Kazuo Ishiguro since he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, tells the story of Klara, an Artificial Friend with outstanding observational qualities, who, from her place in the store, watches carefully the behavior of those who come in to browse, and of those who pass on the street outside. She remains hopeful a customer will soon choose her. Klara and the Sun is a thrilling book that offers a look at our changing world through the eyes of an unforgettable narrator, and one that explores the fundamental question: what does it mean to love?
