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

Story
In one of the most acclaimed novels of recent years, Kazuo Ishiguro imagines the lives of a group of students growing up in a darkly skewed version of contemporary England. Narrated by Kathy, now thirty-one, Never Let Me Go dramatizes her attempts to come to terms with her childhood at the seemingly idyllic Hailsham School and with the fate that has always awaited her and her closest friends in the wider world.

Story
In Nocturnes, a sublime story cycle, Kazuo Ishiguro explores ideas of love, music and the passing of time. From the piazzas of Italy to the Malvern Hills, a London flat to the "hush-hush floor" of an exclusive Hollywood hotel, the characters we encounter range from young dreamers to cafe musicians to faded stars, all of them at some moment of reckoning. Gentle, intimate, and witty, this quintet is marked by a haunting theme: the struggle to keep alive a sense of life's romance, even as one gets older.

Story
1948, Japan. The celebrated painter Masuji Ono fills his days attending to his garden, his house repairs, his two grown daughters and his grandson; his evenings drinking with old associates in quiet lantern-lit bars. His should be a tranquil retirement. But as his memories continually return to the past - to a life and a career deeply touched by the rise of Japanese militarism - a dark shadow begins to grow over his serenity.

Cartea urmăreşte destinul a trei orfani: Christopher Banks, Sarah Hemmings, de care acesta se îndrăgosteşte, şi Jennifer, fetiţa pe care o adoptă. Cele două figuri feminine au în spate o istorie banală, oricît de tragic ar fi faptul de a rămîne orfan. În schimb, în cazul lui Christopher Banks este vorba despre dispariţia misterioasă a părinţilor lui în Shanghai în anii Primului Război Mondial. Cei doi sînt presupuse victime ale traficanţilor de opiu.

Story
Delivered in Stockholm on 7 December 2017, My Twentieth Century Evening and Other Small Breakthroughs is the lecture of the Nobel Laureate in Literature, Kazuo Ishiguro. A generous and hugely insightful biographical sketch, it explores his relationship with Japan, reflections on his own novels and an insight into some of his inspirations, from the worlds of writing, music and film. Ending with a rallying call for the ongoing importance of literature in the world, it is a characteristically thoughtful and moving piece.

Story
Ein großer Sportplatz, freundliche Klassenzimmer und getrennte Schlafsäle für Jungen und Mädchen – auf den ersten Blick scheint Hailsham ein ganz gewöhnliches englisches Internat zu sein. Aber die Lehrer, so engagiert und freundlich sie auch sind, heißen hier Aufseher, und sie lassen die Kinder früh spüren, dass sie für eine besondere Zukunft ausersehen sind. Dieses Gefühl hält Kathy, Ruth und Tommy durch alle Stürme der Pubertät und Verwirrungen der Liebe zusammen – bis es an der Zeit ist, ihrer wahren Bestimmung zu folgen.

A Nobel-díjas író novelláiban is ugyanazzal a pontossággal és finomsággal építkezik, mint amit regényeiben már megszokhattunk. A hangoskönyvünkön hallható mindkét történetben a zene játssza a központi szerepet: Hogyan képes bármelyikünk életét befolyásolni, a legkülönbözőbb sorsú embereket egymáshoz fűzni. - Egy kedves, bölcs könyv az idő múlásáról és azokról a pillanatokról, melyek megszépítik az életet, szerelmi vallomások a zenéhez.

Kathy, Tommy e Ruth vivono in un collegio, Hailsham, immerso nella campagna inglese. Non hanno genitori, ma non sono neppure orfani, e crescono insieme ai compagni, accuditi da un gruppo di tutori, che si occupano della loro educazione. Fin dalla più tenera età nasce fra i tre bambini una grande amicizia. La loro vita, voluta e programmata da un'autorità superiore nascosta, sarà accompagnata dalla musica dei sentimenti, dall'intimità più calda al distacco più violento.

Kathy H. tem 31 anos e está prestes a encerrar sua carreira de "cuidadora". Enquanto isso, ela relembra o tempo que passou em Hailsham, um internato inglês que dá grande ênfase às atividades artísticas e conta, entre várias outras amenidades, com bosques, um lago povoado de marrecos, uma horta e gramados impecavelmente aparados. No entanto, esse internato idílico esconde uma terrível verdade: todos os "alunos" de Hailsham são clones, produzidos com a única finalidade de servir de peças de reposição.

Seduta in vetrina sotto i raggi gentili del Sole, Klara osserva il mondo di fuori e aspetta di essere acquistata e portata a casa. Promette di dedicare tutti i suoi straordinari talenti di androide B2 al piccolo amico che la sceglierà. Gli terrà compagnia, lo proteggerà dalla malattia e dalla tristezza, e affronterà per lui l'insidia più grande: imparare tutte le mille stanze del suo cuore umano. Dalla vetrina del suo negozio, Klara osserva trepidante il fuori e le meraviglie che contiene: il disegno del Sole sulle cose e l'alto Palazzo RPO dietro cui ogni sera lo vede sparire.
