The publications of many books that are concerned with the subjects of memory, loss, and nostalgia have been drawn attention in the last decades. From this point of view, the concepts of remembering, losing, and nostalgia are significant and functional through the works of both Kazuo Ishiguro and Margaret Atwood since the construction of these themes is crucial to their fiction. Their fiction is fundamental to carry out the interactions and interrelations among these contemporary critical conceptions. Consequently, in this study, memory, loss, and nostalgia will be examined through Ishiguro’s Never Let Me Go and Atwood’s The Handmade’s Tale within the frame of the relationships between one another and the bodies of the narrators through these novels.}, number={1}, publisher={Bingol University}
