The Globe 100

INTERNATIONAL FICTIONNever Let Me Go By Kazuo Ishiguro Knopf Canada, 287 pages, $34.95 The latest novel by the author of Remains of the Day and The Unconsoled is an experiment in timing, suspense and ambiguity. Never Let Me Go begins as if it were going to be an account of a glorious childhood at a privileged estate/school called Hailsham.
