The Sun can always find a way to get to us.

From her vantage point within the shop, Klara, an Artificial Friend with exceptional observational skills, closely observes the actions of those entering the space to browse and people walking by on the sidewalk outside. She stays hoping a client would soon pick her, but when the prospect develops that her circumstances may change for ever, Klara is admonished not to rely too much in the promises of humans.

Kazuo Ishiguro examines the fast evolving contemporary world through the perspective of a memorable narrator in Klara and the Sun, his first book since earning the Nobel Prize in Literature, to delve into the basic subject of what love is all about.
