Scene Summary and Context
In the novel Never Let Me Go, the story unfolds in a dystopian setting where clones are created for the purpose of organ donation. The narrative centers on Kathy, Tommy, and Ruth, students at Hailsham, a mysterious boarding school. The story explores complex ethical questions about the value of life, consent, and what it means to be human. The characters grapple with their limited agency and the societal acceptance of their fate, raising questions about morality and human rights. A key scene depicts the students discovering the true purpose of their existence, challenges that force them to confront moral dilemmas about their worth and the treatment they receive. Phrases like 'copies with souls' and 'the choices they make' highlight ongoing debates about identity and morality in a society that views clones as less than human.
