El caballero inexistente

Calvino, Italo

The voice of the knight Agilulf came metallic from inside the closed helmet, as if it were not a throat, but the plate of the armor itself that was vibrating. And it is that, in effect, the armor was hollow, ?Agilulfo did not exist. However, with strength of will, with conviction, he had managed to forge an identity to fight against the infidels in the Army of Charlemagne, and had managed to steal the heart of the haughty Amazon Bradamante. Will love be as constant as war? In this adventure novel -tinged with a delicious sense of humor-, which is at the same time a reflection on identity, on the difference between being and believing that one is, Calvino questions the reason why a man is loved, for which another wishes to take revenge, for which a third considers himself a son, lover, friend or gentleman. Perhaps the answer is found in the question itself, in its melancholy and the strangeness of it.
