Scene Summary and Context Guide

In the novel 'Never Let Me Go,' the story unfolds in a futuristic society where human clones are created for the purpose of organ donation. The setting is a seemingly idyllic boarding school called Hailsham, which appears to nurture innocence but secretly serves a dark purpose. The students are unaware of their true role in society, trusting their environment and teachers. As the story progresses, it becomes clear that the clones are subjected to strict control, with their lives predetermined by medical and governmental authorities. Phrases such as 'limited freedom' and 'created for a purpose' reflect the dystopian reality. The novel explores themes of ethics, humanity, and the impact of technological advancements on society, making it a compelling example of science fiction. The characters' experiences evoke questions about what it means to be human and the moral implications of scientific progress.
