The Nonexistent Knight
by Italo Calvino
Buy on AmazonThis is a fable, set in the time of Charlemagne, about an empty suit of armor that believes itself to be a knight and keeps itself going by willpower and strict adherence to the rules of chivalry. The other fables in Calvino’s Our Ancestors trilogy are just as good.
