Klara and the Sun - Kazuo Ishiguro

Virtual Book Club Event - May 2026

Come join us to discuss this month's poll selection, Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro!

Here is a short synopsis from Goodreads:

From her place in the store, Klara, an Artificial Friend with outstanding observational qualities, watches carefully the behavior of those who come in to browse, and of those who pass on the street outside. She remains hopeful that a customer will soon choose her, but when the possibility emerges that her circumstances may change forever, Klara is warned not to invest too much in the promises of humans.

In Klara and the Sun, Kazuo Ishiguro looks at our rapidly changing modern world through the eyes of an unforgettable narrator to explore a fundamental question: what does it mean to love?
