In his first novel in a decade, the author of the bestseller "The Remains of the Day" delves into the realm of fantasy to explore universal themes such as love, war, and memory. Set in a land plagued by recent wars and a mysterious fog of forgetfulness, a couple embarks on a journey to find their son, testing the strength of their love in a world where memories are fading. Ishiguro's epic Arthurian tale merges fantasy with the lyrical, echoing the styles of George R. R. Martin and Tolkien while addressing fundamental human themes. Critics praise Ishiguro's ability to reinvent himself in this ambitious and unconventional work.
