The Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro
emotional
mysterious
reflective
sad
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? Yes
I understand the whole story as a metaphor about love and loss. It‘s a strange mix of fantasy and myth with a lot of foreshadowing. I liked it but I also think you have to be in the right mood to read it because it‘s altogether quite melancholic.
