El gigante enterrado

Synopsis of El gigante enterrado

In medieval England, an elderly couple, Axl and Beatrice, embark on a journey in search of their son, whom they have not seen in a long time. However, a strange mist has caused the inhabitants of the region to lose much of their memories, making their search difficult. On their way, they will encounter a Saxon warrior named Wistan, a wounded young man, and an elderly knight, Sir Gawain, who seeks to end a dragon. Together, they will face the dangers of the journey, dealing with secrets, guilts, and atrocious missions. Kazuo Ishiguro has built a beautiful narrative that explores memory, oblivion, the ghosts of the past, and the great themes that disturb human beings, such as enduring love, old age, and death.
