Kazuo Ishiguro's The Buried Giant

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1734794744985064.webp

In Arthurian England, a mysterious spell causes everyone to forget everything. An old couple remembers they have a son and try to find him.

Innocent enough premise, right? Then it devolves into race war and genocide

I really liked this one, but like many Ishiguro books it's actually lit fic dressed up like genre fiction. Not sure I'd recommend it to a guy who likes RWBY :marseycringe:

Lud-in-the-Mist is a town upon the periphery of Fairylands and ages ago the Fairies and all their works were celebrated and cherished. However, the country of Dorimane where Lud-in-the-Mist rests within has been taken over by the burgher class :marseymerchant: and all things from the Fairies are reviled and looked upon as criminal. The son of the Mayor Nathaniel is soon to be the target of mob rule after being rumoured to be found eating fairy fruit. Nathaniel has to brave the now forbidden Fairylands to discover the root of the towns engrained hatred and fears and uncover a winding conspiracy.
