Join John for a discussion of The Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro.
The novel follows an elderly Briton couple, Axl and Beatrice, living in a fictional post-Arthurian England in which no-one is able to retain long-term memories. After dimly recalling that, years earlier, they might have had a son, the couple decide to travel to a neighboring village to seek him out.
Sometimes savage, sometimes mysterious, always intensely moving, Kazuo Ishiguro's first novel in a decade tells a luminous story about the act of forgetting and the power of memory, a resonant tale of love, vengeance, and war.
Pick up your copy of the book from the front desk! New people always welcome.
Open to adults and teens.
