Scene Summary and Context
In the novel 'Never Let Me Go' by Kazuo Ishiguro, the story unfolds in a dystopian world where cloned children are raised to donate their organs for others. A particular scene describes how the students at Hailsham school are encouraged to consider their humanity and individuality, despite being created for a purpose beyond their control. The characters—Kathy, Tommy, and Ruth—navigate complex emotions about identity, love, and mortality. The narrative highlights the societal and ethical implications of scientific advancements, echoing themes found in modern pop culture such as films like 'Gattaca' and 'Black Mirror' episodes that explore human identity and ethics in a technological age. A key phrase, 'defining humanity,' symbolizes the ongoing debate about what makes us truly human in a world increasingly driven by artificial intelligence and genetic engineering.
