📚Story Time with Sol: Klara and the Sun

Welcome to Steel City Book Club!

Our next book will be Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro

Set in a near-future society shaped by quiet technological upheaval, the novel follows Klara, an Artificial Friend designed to offer companionship to teenagers.

Through accompanying Josie, a fragile and chronically ill girl living on the outskirts of a fractured educational and social system, Klara observes the unspoken tensions around her; she forms her own earnest ideas about love, loyalty, and sacrifice.

Kazuo Ishiguro’s novel unfolds as a tender, unsettling reflection on what it means to care for someone, and how far devotion can reach in a world shaped by technology and quiet sorrow.
