What does Kazuo Ishiguro try to tell us through his novel Never Let Me Go ? What is it all about?

The novel
points a dystopian future where human beings are cloned to provide a supply of organs for
transplant. This practice, while based in science and a plausible topic for a work of
speculative , is also a richthat may be at the root of the author's purpose in telling the
story. The clones, who don't have parents and who are wards of the state, who are in fact
possessions of the state, could be seen to represent the poor or underprivileged classes of
Great Britain. They are treated not only a ssecond-class citizens, but as subhuman. The belief
that they are not truly human, and that their expressions of emotion or creativity are simply
glitches and not evidence of their having a soul, could be seen to parallel the notion, not
unheard of in modern Britain, that the lower classes are intellectually and socially inferior to
the upper classes. This reinforcement of social hierarchy is a theme that also occurs in other
novels by Ishiguro.

It is also not inappropriate to suggest that the novel
offers a commentary on the breakdown of the medical industry in Great Britain, which once had
one of the finest healthcare systems in the world. Its transition from socialized to partly
privatized has been disastrous, and the novel could be exploring what it would mean for the rich
to be the recipients of the best medical care while the poor are exploited by this
system.
