Klara and the Sun

A story of service, friendship and unconditional love. I picked up a copy of Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro from a small bookstore during my travels in Switzerland. After reading through the first few chapters, I knew I was in for a heartfelt story. Ishiguro addresses the relationship between faith and technology in a way that provides hope for each to coexist well into the future. The ending left me feeling a bit disappointed, not due plot or writing style, but rather because it made me reflect on the finite relationships in my own life. Klara is one of those characters I will always remember, and I truly believe her story is one that will impact all of us.
