crabbygirl reviewed 克拉拉与太阳 by Kazuo Ishiguro
克拉拉是一个专为陪伴儿童而设计的太阳能人工智能机器人（AF），具有极高的观察、推理与共情能力。她坐在商店展示橱窗里，注视着街头路人以及前来浏览橱窗的孩子们的一举一动。她始终期待着很快就会有人挑中她，不过，当这种永久改变境遇的可能性出现时，克拉拉却被提醒不要过分相信人类的诺言。
在《克拉拉与太阳》这部作品中，石黑一雄通过一位令人难忘的叙述者的视角，观察千变万化的现代社会，探索了一个根本性的问题：究竟什么是爱？
Review of 'Klara and the Sun' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Just like Never Let Me Go, Ishiguru builds a world that is slightly off-kilter: you recognise so much but there is something you cannot put your finger on. It is that tension that keeps the interest, keeps the pages going. it is a mystery but always a human mystery.
And like Never Let Me Go, the book was exploring what it means to be human, to love, to sacrifice. But this time he gives us a happy ending.
