For the Service95 Book Club this month, Dua is joined by Nobel Prize-winning author Kazuo Ishiguro to discuss Klara And The Sun, her October Monthly Read. As Taika Waititi’s film adaptation arrives in cinemas this month, they explore Ishiguro’s speculative novel and its questions around technology, loneliness, hope and what makes us uniquely human.
At the heart of the novel is Klara, an artificial friend chosen to be a companion to 14-year-old Josie, a “lifted” teenager whose health is deteriorating. In this conversation, the pair discuss why Ishiguro chose Klara as the narrator, the ethical questions raised by a society where children can be genetically edited, and the novel’s central question: can our memories, behaviours and qualities be captured through data and what makes us human?
The pair also explore the importance of hope, connection, and art, as well as Ishiguro’s thoughts on seeing his novel brought to the big screen and what his much anticipated upcoming novel is all about.
