Literary Fiction
by Kazuo Ishiguro
In post-Arthurian Britain, where a mysterious mist has caused collective amnesia, elderly couple Axl and Beatrice journey to find their son, whose face they can barely remember. Along the way they encounter Saxon warriors, a knight on a strange quest, and dragons, gradually uncovering what the mist conceals. Ishiguro crafts a haunting allegory about memory, love, and whether societies should remember or forget their traumatic histories.
