Episode 89-Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
from Reads and Weeds · host Reads and Weeds
Claire is back! It is the day after the midterm elections and we are relieved that our rights were protected by Michiganders. Maryland and Missouri voted for cannabis legalization. Arkansas, North Dakota, and South Dakota rejected it. I'm trying a new recording setup and smoking tiny joints and we have a great spontaneous conversation about everything from feng shui to gun safety and try to catch up on allllll that we've been reading. She loaned me Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro several months ago, which was released in 2005 to much award buzz. I read it right away but was so disturbed by the reveal of the horror underlying this seemingly simple story of teens at a boarding school that I couldn't really talk about it until now. Keep voting so we don't end up here, please and thank you.
