Beschreibung

*Kazuo Ishiguro's new novel Klara and the Sun is now available*<BR><BR>The Romans have long since departed, and Britain is steadily declining into ruin.<BR><BR> The Buried Giant begins as a couple, Axl and Beatrice, set off across a troubled land of mist and rain in the hope of finding a son they have not seen for years. They expect to face many hazards - some strange and other-worldly - but they cannot yet foresee how their journey will reveal to them dark and forgotten corners of their love for one another.<BR><BR> 'A beautiful fable with a hard message at its core . . .

There won't, I suspect, be a more important work of fiction published this year.' The Times<BR><BR> 'An exceptional novel . . . The Buried Giant does what important books do: it remains in the mind long after it has been read, refusing to leave.' New York Times Book Review<BR><BR>'A beautiful, heartbreaking book about the duty to remember and the urge to forget.' Observer
