“Memories, even your most precious ones, fade surprisingly quickly." - How does Ishiguro present narration in Never Let Me Go?
- Engage with the quote - dealing with memory, and the unreliability of it2) Link that to the unreliability of narration in Never Let Me Go, and how far we can trust Kathy H.3) Reasons for unreliability, and why she may hide things from the reader.4) But is she reliable? Present a counter-argument to provide a depth of answer.5) Moving beyond black/white morals - all narration is inherently unreliable, especially when it comes to the young cast of characters, and the instability of youth.6) Conclude - bring it back to quote - turn it back on "precious" - it's futile to hold on to memory, so it's futile to seek a perfect first person narration.
