The Buried Giant

The first new novel from Ishiguro in 10 years, now in paperback. The novel begins as a couple set off across a troubled land of mist and rain in the hope of finding a son they have not seen in years, and it is an exploration of lost memories, love, revenge and war. 'The best and most original writer of his generation' Susan Hill, "Mail on Sunday"
