I have chosen to read the novel "Never Let Me Go" by Kazuo Ishiguro. It is about children growing up and coming to learn that they are clones and have been made in order to be organ donors to their identical human. I have yet to read the whole story but as far as I can tell this story is a dystopia because for those clones there is a lack of hope in being anything but a clone. They find they do not want that fait for themselves yet struggle to change their destiny. I believe I will be doing a Marxist approach to this novel due to the fact that it is one class of people trying to control another and their lives. I have not done research on this novel yet but plan to do so before writing my essay. And honestly have no idea about where to get sources.
