Description: Title: The Nonexistent Knight Author: Calvino, Italo Publisher: Mariner Books Classics Binding: Paperback Pages: 144 Dimensions: 7.80h x 5.20w x 0.40d Product Weight: 0.25 lbs. Language: English ISBN: 9780544959101 An empty suit of armor is the hero in this witty novella, a picaresque gem--now available in an independent volume for the first time--that brilliantly parodies medieval knighthood. Set in the time of Charlemagne and narrated by a nun with her own secrets to keep, The Nonexistent Knight tells the story of Agilulf, a gleaming white suit of armor with nothing inside it. A challenge to his honor sends Agilulf on a search through France, England, and North Africa to confirm the chastity of a virgin he saved from rape years earlier. In the end, after many surprising turns of plot, a closing confession draws this sparkling novella to a perfect finish.
