Katie was never ordinary. At Hailsham, the boarding school where she grew up, all the children were special. And they received a special education. But none of them could contact the real world. Perhaps it was for the best? Thirty years later, Katie remembers her childhood, full of strange innuendos, half-hearted revelations and an underlying threat. She seems to travel through time, acutely aware of the changes that have occurred around her, and tells about what happened. "Don't Let Me Go" is a novel that has left an indelible mark not only in world literature, but also in the heart of everyone who has read it.
