Document Summary
Never let me go by kazuo ishiguro (continued from lecture 10) Metafiction: it is like the reader is sitting with kathy at the beginning of the book. Veterans: people that have lived in the cottages for a while. Ruth copes how chrissy and rodney act as a couple: ruth and tommy copy chrissy and rodney who copy actors from television, layers of being a clone. Hailsham is all about creativity but the cottages is not a place for being creative: clones lose some individuality, clones get reduced to imitations of real life/people. Miss emily (page 66), lost corner : if you lose something, you will find it there, hope for clones to be found and seen as precious like a lost item. Ruth wants to work in an office (page 144) Office with ruth"s possible (page 158: how original are the lives of the possible, they watch people in the office like how they watch television.
