Abstract
Japanese British writer Kazuo Ishiguro is one of the leading writers in contemporary British literature. He has always been committed to creating works with universal significance. Responsibility and destiny are themes that run through his works. His novel Never Let Me Go tells a story of a group of clones growing up in the Hailsham, who are given the mission to donate organs at birth. So, there is no doubt that they will inevitably end their lives in the process of donating organs to human beings again and again. The tragic life of clones is determined by the motivation of human to create them.
