N ever Let Me Go   Kazuo Ishiguro - a novel I am reading for a book club meeting I am attending on the last week of this month. Being 'pop sci-fi thriller' it's not what I normally read but exploring new nooks of genre is nifty.   Characters of this novel (2005) are children raised in a boarding school in East Sussex, England as clones intended to provide organs for non-clones.
