    even middle aged‚ you’ll start donating your vital organs” (Ishiguro 81). The clones are destined to be donors for the rest of their living lives. The question is do clones have souls?

    A CHILD OF SORROW By: Zoilo Galang It is such a very wonderful love story that tickles your bones and tells you that it is a nice feeling to be in love.

Considering the fact that this is the first Filipino novel written in English‚ it follows suit that it lacks sophistication. The characterization‚ plot and setting of the said novel are simple. However

    ‘There is no soul…’ 35 Marks The issues focused on whether a soul exists or not; I personally think that we do have a soul therefore‚ I disagree with this statement ‘there is no soul’. The main reason to that is because I believe that our soul is our identity and without our soul we are left with nothing but our body which then leaves us the same as every other human on this earth however‚ the only thing that can actually differ us from other human beings in order to make such a creative world
