About this listen

"Klara and the Sun" by Nobel Prize–winning author Kazuo Ishiguro is a haunting novel that blends science fiction with deep human questions. Told through the eyes of Klara, an Artificial Friend designed to care for children, the book explores themes of love, loneliness, technology, and what it means to be truly human. Is it tender or unsettling? Hopeful or heartbreaking? Philosophical or meandering? Hosts Kacy and Tyler unpack Ishiguro’s distinctive narrative style, the novel’s big ideas about faith and artificial intelligence, and its emotional impact to help you decide if this one belongs on your “essential reading” list or your “maybe someday” stack.
