Klara and the Sun
by Kazuo Ishiguro
Kazuo Ishiguro's Klara and the Sun narrates a near future through Klara, a solar-powered Artificial Friend purchased as companion to a sick girl, whose keen observation and faulty conclusions make her one of fiction's great machine narrators. It is science fiction as a Nobel laureate writes it: the technology offstage, the loneliness fully lit.
