The Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro
5.0
Brilliant and devastating--but gently. I know that sounds odd. I think professional reviewers say it best:
“A profound meditation on trauma, memory, and the collective lies nations and groups create to expiate their guilt.” —The Boston Globe
“The love story at its center shimmers with a mythic and melancholy grace.” —Vulture
“A beautiful, heartbreaking book about the duty to remember and the urge to forget.” —The Guardian (London)
